Flamengo and São Paulo open Women’s Brasileirão semi-final in Rio on Saturday | OneFootball

Flamengo and São Paulo begin their Women’s Brasileirão semi-final on Saturday 12, kick-off 16:30 Brasília time, at Estádio Luso-Brasileiro in Rio de Janeiro. The game will be shown on TV Globo nationwide, with coverage on SporTV and GETV.

According to Coluna Do Fla, São Paulo are favourites, though Flamengo could go through if they find form over the two Saturdays, noting Grêmio pushed the favourites hard in the previous round.

Flamengo finished fifth in the regular phase and knocked out Ferroviária in a thriller. They won 1-0 at home, then drew 2-2 in Araraquara while playing with a player short for almost the entire second half.

São Paulo topped the table and saw off Grêmio. They drew 0-0 away in Rio Grande do Sul, then won 2-0 at Estádio Brinco de Ouro da Princesa in Campinas.

Form is strong on both sides. Flamengo are unbeaten in five, while São Paulo’s run stretches to nine.

The meeting also carries a revenge edge. São Paulo beat Flamengo 2-1 in the regular phase at CT de Cotia, with Isa Guimarães and Duda Serrana scoring and Fernandinha replying.

The return leg is on Saturday 19 at Estádio Brinco de Ouro da Princesa in Campinas. The winners face Corinthians or Bahia, who meet on Tuesday 15 at Fonte Nova and on 21 September at Neo Química Arena.
