Flamengo to Win
Sao Paulo beat Flamengo in four of their last five meetings, which is quite impressive since Flamengo is one of the best teams in Brazil and reigning champions. However, we expect a different outcome in this match since Flamengo is still hoping to defend their title and they need a win in this game badly, while Sao Paulo is stuck in middle of the table. So, our prediction is for Flamengo to win this game.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
All five most recent head-to-head duels between Sao Paulo and Flamengo have gone over 2.5 total goals, so we expect to see the same in their upcoming duel as well. Furthermore, Flamengo averaged 2.83 goals per game this season in Serie A, which is the highest average in the league. And while Sao Paulo has the second-worst average with 1.71 goals per game, their h2h tradition suggests that we will be seeing goals in this match.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
Since we expect to see at least three goals in this game, we also expect both teams to score in the match. After all, both teams have scored in four of the previous five h2h duels between Sao Paulo and Flamengo, as well as 45% of all Sao Paulo matches in the league this season and 47% of all Flamengo games until now in Serie A.

Sao Paulo vs Flamengo preview: Can Flamengo stay in the race?
Sao Paulo
It’s been a rough season for Sao Paulo in Serie A but at least the team managed to get a bit further away from the relegation zone since they are now seven points ahead of the first team in it. In the last five games, Sao Paulo has two wins, one draw, and two losses, so they are still inconsistent in their form. Gaelano, Luan, and William will all miss the upcoming game with injuries.
Flamengo
While Flamengo is not really in bad form at the moment, they suffered some surprising setbacks in their title race and it now seems much less likely that they can defend their title this season. For example, Flamengo failed to beat Chapecoense in the last round, a team that’s been long relegated and far away the worst team this season. That being said, Flamengo is also dealing with multiple injuries, while Isla is away with his national team.
