Our Predictions
Flamengo are clear favorites with odds at 1.91. Recent head-to-head meetings favor Flamengo (3 wins in last 5 matches). Sao Paulo is missing key players to injury, including both Andre and Calleri, which weakens their attack. Flamengo have strong away form and motivation at the top of the table.
Three of the last five meetings had two or fewer goals. Sao Paulo’s attack is weakened by injuries, and Flamengo’s defense has tightened up away from home. Odds for under 2.5 at 1.57 suggest a close and low-scoring affair is likely.
With Sao Paulo missing key attackers and Flamengo’s strong defensive record in away matches, both teams to score 'No' (1.70 odds) looks good value. Recent H2Hs and team news support a likely clean sheet for the visitors.
