Corinthians vs Flamengo Prediction

Corinthians are fourth in the league table and have won only two of their last five league games. They are three points behind league leaders Palmeiras, but their inconsistent form will be a source of concern. Former Chelsea and Arsenal winger and Brazil international Willian is a part of the Corinthians side, but his impact has been limited in the league.

The likes of Roger Guedes and Gustavo Mantuan could prove to be crucial against Flamengo.

Flamengo, on the other hand, are eighth in the league, five points behind Corinthians. They have won three of their last five league games. Attackers Giorgian de Arrascaeta and Gabriel Barbosa are the stars of this side. Barbosa's form for Flamengo has seen him linked with a return to European football, with rumors suggesting interest from Newcastle United and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
