Falmengo take on the visitors Talleres in the round 2 match of Copa Libertadores group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, April 13th at Maracanã (Rio de Janeiro).
Flamengo starts new life under management of Paulo Sousa. After the championship titles in 2019 and 2020, they finished only 2nd, and, most importantly, without a chance for a trophy: Atlético Mineiro had as many as 13 points more. The reaction was the invitation of another Portuguese specialist: Paulo Souza left the post of coach of the Polish national team for this. There was also a serious, especially for Brazil, transfer campaign. True, in the final of the Carioca State Cup, the grand lost to his main enemy, Fluminense. But he was able to take victory in the 1st round of the Copa Libertadores. In Peru, they scored a goal in each half against Sporting Cristal without conceding anything. But the championship began only with a draw against Atlético Goianense.

Talleres has not started the season well. "Matadores" last year was able to repeat their success in the national championship – they took 3rd place. True, now, in the Diego Maradona Cup, the start was very strained. For a long time, it was not possible to win, then, after the long-awaited success with Godoy Cruz, a limp defeat of Gimnasia followed: in La Plata, the guests opened the score, but then received 2 goals in return. Last week, the Argentines went to Chile - in the 1st round they had a duel against Universidad Católica, which they won at the expense of Fertoli’s goal. And then there was 1-5 defeat to Defensa y Justicia.
Flamengo is actively playing in the Copa Libertadores, which cannot be said about Talleres, who is clearly listed lower. Argentines will come to the Maracana for the first time.
Prediction for the match: Flamengo to win with -1.5 handicap.
