Flamengo Preview
The home team is looking to take advantage of this Flamengo vs Avai match to move directly to the CONMEBOL Libertadores Cup group stage. Dorival Junior’s team now has 62 points after 18 victories, 8 ties, and 11 losses. The tricampeão will be hoping to gain momentum in this match and secure a place in South America’s top club competition. However, it will have to wait for the outcome of this weekend’s Corinthians vs Atlético Mineiro game.
In their most recent match, Flá drew 2-2 with Juventude on the road. Matheuzinho and Werton were in charge of getting the fans celebrating, curiously, in the 1st and 90th minutes. The club will also officially bid farewell to two of its great idols, the Diegos.
Possible Flamengo lineup: (4-3-3) : Hugo Souza, Rodinei, Fabrício Bruno, Pablo, Ayrton Lucas, Erick Pulgar, João Gomes, Victor Hugo; Matheuzinho, Matheus França, Cebolinha.
Avaí Preview
Ava is one of the teams that couldn’t stay in the First Division and will be the visiting team in this match. This season, the blue team has a total of 8 victories, 8 ties, and 21 losses, placing them in the tournament’s penultimate position. Dignity and respect for the fans will be the most important thing in the Flamengo vs Avai match, which will force the club to win.
The team’s most recent match was a 2-0 loss against Ceará. The home team had less possession and fewer attempts on the opposing goal, but their efficacy was sufficient to secure the three points. Mateurs Ferreira and Natanael scored in the 49th and 90+1 minutes, respectively.
Possible Avaí lineup (4-3-3): Vladimir, Thales, Wellington Nascimento, Lipe, Natanael, Lucas Ventura, Eduardo Biasi, Bruno Silva, Vitinho, Marcinho, Pablo Dyego.

For this sort-of farewell match, Flamengo vs Avaí, we believe the home team will take the three points due to their good season and the possibility of reaching the Copa Libertadores. The tribute to their stars will also serve as additional motivation to finish the season on a good note at the iconic Maracana.
Prediction: Flamengo win 2-0.
