Fluminense and Flamengo play from 6 p.m. this Sunday (12) at the Maracanã


In addition to three points in the Brasileirão, this Sunday’s (12) derby between Flamengo and Fluminense will also serve as a tiebreaker between the coaches. That is because the clash between Leonardo Jardim and Luís Zubeldía has never had a winner, which could change.

The coaches have faced each other twice in their careers. Once in 2025, when Jardim was still at Cruzeiro, and the other this year. In both matches, the score remained 0-0 in regular time.
