AI predicts score for Flamengo v Vitória in the Copa do Brasil

Flamengo begins its quest for a sixth Copa do Brasil title

Flamengo returns to the pitch this Wednesday (22) to face Vitória in the first leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil. Looking ahead to the clash, the Artificial Intelligence ‘Gemini’ predicted that Mengão will win the match 2-0, taking an advantage over the team from Bahia.

What did Gemini say about the Flamengo vs Vitória match?

Flamengo comes into this matchup riding high on confidence. Under Leonardo Jardim, the team is on a positive run. Considering the depth of Flamengo’s squad and the need to get the result at home to avoid pressure in Salvador, the tendency is for Rubro-Negro dominance. Prediction: Flamengo 2-0 Vitória,” it said.

It is worth noting that the second match of the fifth round is scheduled for May 14 (Thursday), at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Barradão. Therefore, with the knockout tie to be decided away from home, Flamengo hopes to build a good advantage at the Maracanã and put itself in a strong position to qualify for the round of 16.

Does Flamengo have absences for the match against Vitória?

Flamengo currently has three confirmed absences for the match against Vitória. Erick Pulgar is recovering from a right shoulder injury, while Jorge Carrascal is serving a suspension for a red card received in the Supercopa do Brasil. Finally, Lucas Paquetá has swelling in the fibular tendon and in the hamstring.

Jorginho, on the other hand, is a doubt for Leonardo Jardim for the Copa do Brasil debut. That is because the midfielder trained with the Rubro-Negro squad this Monday (20) and, because of that, has a chance of being available to the Portuguese coach. It is worth remembering that the No. 21 had been recovering from a left calf injury.

When do Flamengo and Vitória face each other?

The first match between Flamengo and Vitória takes place this Wednesday (22), in the first leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil. Thus, the ball starts rolling at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at the Maracanã.
