Flamengo RJ hosts Corinthians in round 33 of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Thursday, November 18th at Maracanã (Rio de Janeiro)
Flamengo was clearly angry about the unsuccessful trip to Chapeco. Losing points in the away match against the main outsider of Serie A is completely unacceptable for the Vultures. After a sudden misfire, Flamengo simply went into overdrive. The Scarlet-Blacks hammered Bahia at home (3-0) and Sao Paulo away (0-4). Previously, they had a segment when they scored at least three goals in five or six matches in a row. It will be cool if Flamengo surprises with high production again.

Corinthians could have forgotten the last time it won on a foreign pitch. Timao will arrive in Rio after a home victory over Cuiaba. The recent outsider exhausted the Black-and-Whites as it should, forcing them to panic in the last minutes. In other words, Corinthians did not have enough strength for the whole match.
Flamengo has not conceded at home for 270 minutes. Surprisingly, the Vultures are far from the most productive team at their stadium — only eight out of 16 matches ended with Over 2.5 goals scored. Corinthians is almost the last team in Serie A in terms of away production — 12 out of 16 matches ended with Under 2.5 goals scored. Timao has not won in Rio de Janeiro since 2015. In the 1st round, Corinthians lost 1-3 at home. And Flamengo was stronger in the last four head-to-head matches. The Vultures have no room for another mistake. After a misfire in Chapeco, they played two cool matches, indicating their claims to the 2nd line in the Serie A standings. I do not argue that in Sao Paulo, Flamengo was partly lucky with an early sending-off in the opponents’ camp. Nevertheless, I think that the Vultures will manage to gain another confident victory.
Prediction for the match: Flamengo to win with -1.0 handicap
