Flamengo
- Flamengo are 2nd in Serie A 2026 with 45 points from 23 games.
- They are one of the most potent outfits in Brazil and in Serie A 2026 they have 10 home games with 6 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss.
- Leo Jardim's side are also in fine form after 3 wins, 1 draw and just 1 defeat in their last 5 games in all competitions.
- Their ability to hold possession, break into vertical attacks and concede just 0.80 goals per game at home (just 8 conceded all season) makes them a real tough nut to crack.
Mirassol
- Mirassol are 17th with 24 points from 23 fixtures.
- Mirassol are another decent side and coach Rafael Guanaes has given the team a compact 4-3-3 identity which is built upon work-rate, pressing and transition speed.
- They could not buy a win in their latest outing, a 1-1 draw away to Santos, but the 5 games leading into this fixture have been poor, with Mirassol failing to win, drawing twice and losing 3.
- They have won just once in 10 Serie A 2026 away games (W1, D3, L7), so this will be a tough trip.
- However, a goal and a few chances is possible as they have scored 10 times in 11 away trips in Serie A 2026.
Head-to-Head
They were blown away 5-1 at home by Flamengo in Serie A 2026.
Betting Insights
- Flamengo are the runaway favorites here at _1.28_, and there is no reason to deviate from this opinion.
- Mirassol are a massive long shot at _9.8_, while the draw is priced at _5.3_, which is a little on the short side given that the visitors have no chance of getting a result.
- Both teams to score - no selection at 1.77 looks a savvy bet given that this is a classic favourites vs. underdogs game where the latter will likely press with the occasional counter.
Prediction
Flamengo are in good form and will punish Mirassol on the break, so the home team are the pick.
