🔥 Flamengo v Vasco pits in-form Arrascaeta against Coutinho, have your say! | OneFootball

Flamengo and Vasco will meet again this Sunday (21), at 5:30 pm, at Maracanã, for the 24th round of the Brasileirão.

The classic match brings together two number 10s in great form: Arrascaeta and Philippe Coutinho, who come as two of the biggest highlights of Flamengo and Vasco this season.

The Uruguayan midfielder is experiencing one of the best moments since he arrived at Flamengo in 2019. At 31 years old, he has already scored 18 goals this season, equaling his highest scoring record for the club.

After knee surgery at the end of last year, Arrascaeta began to play closer to the area, increasing direct participation in goals. With the number 10 shirt inherited after Gabigol's departure, he reached important milestones in 2025, such as 100 assists and 300 games for the club.

On the other hand, Coutinho also arrives in high form at Vasco. The 33-year-old player has five goals in the last ten games and has stood out in set pieces.

Recently, he completed 100 matches for the team that revealed him and took over the number 10 shirt definitively, after ending his contract with Aston Villa. Since returning to São Januário, he has accumulated 56 games, 13 goals, and 4 assists.

While Flamengo leads the championship with 50 points, Vasco seeks to distance itself from the relegation zone.

Beyond the table, the Clássico dos Milhões reinforces a tradition of great confrontations of number 10s - names like Zico, Roberto Dinamite, Edmundo, and Petkovic have already marked an era, and now the expectation falls on Arrascaeta and Coutinho.
