Flamengo and Mirassol meet in rescheduled Brasileirão fixture at the Maracanã | OneFootball

Flamengo host Mirassol at 19:30 Brasília time on Wednesday at the Maracanã in a rescheduled fourth-round Brasileirão match. According to Coluna Do Fla, the game will be shown exclusively on Premiere pay-per-view, with Rede Globo not broadcasting.

The sides met in round 23, when Flamengo won 5-1, a result that has buoyed the home crowd. That recent form underlines Leonardo Jardim’s team as favourites.

Flamengo sit second on 48 points, with Palmeiras leading on 52 with a game more. Victory would cut the gap to one point once the schedules are level.

Mirassol arrive seeking points to move clear of the relegation fight, and to reverse their poor record against Flamengo this season. That task looks harder after the heavy defeat suffered in the second half of the campaign.

Even so, Rafael Guanaes is expected to send his side out on the front foot, banking on organisation to chase a surprise away result. With both teams needing points, the stakes are clear.
