Prediction

  • Cruzeiro ended a run of seven matches without a win last week, as they saw off Lanus in a 2-1 aggregate victory, as they progressed to the Copa Sudamericana final. Their last league win saw them suffer a 3-0 loss to Athletico Paranaense, something they be eager to bounce back from.
  • Flamengo currently sit fifth in the league and are unbeaten in their last four matches in all competitions. Last time out, they won 3-1 against Atletico Mineiro in the Copa do Brasil final first leg. Their last league outing saw them draw 1-1 with Internacional. They'll be hoping for a positive result here, before Sunday's final.
