Betting on Flamengo
Being the champion of the Libertadores is a tough job. There is little time to rest and on top of that, there is pressure to play well and win everything. They are not doing well in the league, and it’s unacceptable for the squad they have.
They started off perfectly with a resounding 3-0 victory against Coritiba. However, with their sights set on defending their continental trophy, it’s been very difficult for them to maintain their form in the local league, and they have suffered two consecutive defeats.
Inter de Porto Alegre gave them a tough 1-2 defeat, and Botafogo beat them 2-3. Both games were fought hard, but they had the same issue—they remember to play well too late, and their reaction isn’t enough. The good news is that they still have time to improve and recover the lost points.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Santos; Fabricio Bruno, David Luiz, Leo Pereira; Wesley, Arturo Vidal, Thiago Maia, Ayrton Lucas; Gabriel Barbosa, Everton; Pedro.
Betting on Goiás
They are in the same situation as Flamengo, with two losses and only one win, but the difference is that they are not the champions of America, so the pressure is lower. They started the tournament with a tough setback against Atlético Paranaense, losing 2-0.
On the next matchday, they secured a great 3-1 victory against Corinthians at home. Last week, they visited Inter and lost 1-0. It’s worth noting that their first loss was also away, which shows they struggle when not playing on their home turf.
They find it difficult to win away matches and struggle to create scoring opportunities outside of Goiás. They were weak in attack in both of their losses and failed to score, managing only three shots in those games, which is not enough to win. They are mainly focused on another tournament, where they remain unbeaten in the Sudamericana.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Tadeu; Sander, Bruno Melo, Lucas Halter, Apodi; Everton Morelli, Ze Ricardo; Dieguinho, Julian Palacios, Vinicius; Matheus Peixoto.
JefeBet Prediction
Both teams are managing their squads for the international cup matches. However, the local tournament is also crucial, so they understand the importance of this game and earning points.
For this Flaengo vs Goias, at JefeBet, we believe that Mengao will win because Verdao‘s away form is their weakest.
Prediction: Flamengo Moneyline (FLA 2-0 GOI)
