The tickets allocated to Corinthians fans were sold through the Fiel Torcedor program, at a fixed price of R$ 100. Sales opened last Tuesday (8), following the priority system based on the points accumulated by members.

Flamengo did not officially announce the total number of tickets made available to away fans for the match. Therefore, although all tickets have been reserved, there is no confirmation of the exact number of Corinthians supporters who will be able to occupy the section designated for the Fiel at the Maracanã.

Corinthians advises fans on ticket access

With reservations now closed, Corinthians also issued guidance to fans who managed to secure their place at the stadium.

According to the club, the link to access the ticket will be sent to the email address registered by the buyer up to 24 hours before the scheduled kickoff time. Therefore, fans should keep an eye on the inbox of the address used at the time of purchase.

The club also stressed that participation in the Fiel Torcedor program, together with the accumulation of points, allows members early access to ticket sales for the team’s upcoming matches.

Timão looks to bounce back in the Brazilian Championship

On the field, Corinthians arrives at the Maracanã under pressure because of its recent run in the Brasileirão. The team coached by Fernando Diniz sits in 12th place with 32 points and is looking to end a streak of four consecutive defeats in the tournament.

Flamengo, on the other hand, starts the round at the top of the table with 54 points. This will be the third meeting between the clubs in the 2026 season. Timão has not yet lost to the Rio side this year.

In February, Corinthians and Flamengo contested the Supercopa Rei at Arena Mané Garrincha, and the black-and-white side won the title with a 2-0 victory, thanks to goals from Gabriel Paulista and Yuri Alberto. Then, in the first half of the Brazilian Championship, the teams drew 1-1 at Neo Química Arena, with Yuri once again scoring for Timão.

After facing Flamengo, Corinthians will turn its attention to the Libertadores. On Wednesday (16), at 9:30 p.m., the team hosts Estudiantes at Neo Química Arena in the second leg of the quarterfinals, after a 1-1 draw in Argentina.
