Vasco da Gama vs Flamengo Prediction and Betting Tips | June 5th 2023
Vasco da Gama will host Flamengo at the Estadio Vasco da Gama on Monday in another round of the 2023 Brasileiro Serie A campaign.
The home side have endured a difficult return to the Brazilian top-flight this season and currently find themselves in the drop zone. They were beaten 2-0 by Fortaleza last time out and had looked set to be headed toward a draw before their opponents scored two late goals to pick up all three points.
Vasco sit 18th in the league table with just six points from eight games. They will now be looking to shake off their latest results and return to winning ways on Monday.
Flamengo had a sluggish start to their season but have found good form of late and are now climbing up the table. They played out a 1-1 draw against Cruzeiro in their last league outing before beating rivals Fluminense 2-0 in the second leg of their Copa do Brasil last 16 tie.
The visitors sit seventh in the table with 13 points from eight games and will be hopeful of adding to that tally next week.
