Flamengo and Mirassol play postponed match from the fourth round of the Brasileirão
Flamengo and Mirassol face each other again at the Maracanã this Wednesday (02). The match, therefore, completes the fourth round of the Brasileirão, which has been postponed since the start of the season. The teams, in fact, have not met at the ‘Sacred Temple’ for more than a year.
The only match in history between the two clubs at the Maracanã took place in August 2025. On that occasion, Flamengo won 2-1 in the 19th round of the Brasileirão. Léo Pereira and Plata scored Flamengo’s goals, while Gabriel pulled one back for Mirassol.
So, returning to the same venue brings back good memories for Flamengo fans. Therefore, the team will try to repeat the positive result against their São Paulo rival. The gap of more than a year reinforces the special nature of this reunion.
Flamengo sit in second place in the Brasileirão with 48 points. Rubro-Negro are four points behind leaders Palmeiras in the national competition. In 24 matches, Leonardo Jardim’s team has recorded 14 wins, six draws, and four losses.
Mirassol, meanwhile, are fighting to move away from the relegation zone. The team sits in 16th place with 25 points so far. In 24 matches, the São Paulo side has six wins, seven draws, and 11 losses.
It is worth noting that the overall record between the clubs heavily favors Flamengo. The Rio de Janeiro side has never lost to Mirassol in three meetings. Altogether, Rubro-Negro have two wins and one draw.
In addition, in the first half of the 2026 Brasileirão, Flamengo thrashed Mirassol 5-1 at Maião. Carrascal, Luiz Araújo, Pedro (twice), and Samuel Lino scored Fla’s goals. Thus, the gap between the two teams was clear in that previous meeting.
Even so, Mirassol come into the match needing points to move away from the ‘drop zone.’ Therefore, the São Paulo side should take an attacking approach against the Most Beloved. Flamengo, on the other hand, are chasing all three points to put pressure on leaders Palmeiras.
The match between Flamengo and Mirassol takes place this Wednesday (02), in a postponed game from the fourth round of the Brasileirão. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla brings you all the details on Flamengo throughout the 2026 season. So, stay tuned to the website, social media, and YouTube. In addition, Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the match against Mirassol.
