The 2026 season is still approaching its final stretch. But Flamengo are already focused on the possibility of winning two more titles: the Brasileirão and the Libertadores. To do that, Leonardo Jardim’s team will have to show consistency after the FIFA international break.
In short, Flamengo have 11 defeats in the 2026 season so far. Of these, two came in the Recopa Sudamericana. In addition, the Rubro-Negro lost four matches in the Brasileirão, one in the Copa do Brasil, one in the Supercopa do Brasil, as well as three in the Carioca.
It is important to point out that, up to this point, Flamengo have played 51 matches this year. In all games in 2026, besides the 11 defeats, the Most Beloved have recorded 31 wins and 11 draws. Finally, the rubro-negro team scored 103 goals while conceding 47.
So far, Flamengo have won only the Campeonato Carioca title. However, the Most Beloved still have a chance to lift the Brasileirão and Libertadores trophies. For that, as mentioned earlier, Fla will need to show consistency to stay strong in the final stretch of the season.
At the moment, Flamengo lead the Brazilian Championship by a certain margin. That is because Leonardo Jardim’s team have 60 points, in other words, three more than second-placed Palmeiras, who have 57. Therefore, the final ten rounds of the Brasileirão are crucial for Fla to seal their tenth title in history.
As the reigning Libertadores champions, Flamengo have qualified for the semifinals of the competition this season. In October, the Most Beloved face Estudiantes de la Plata (ARG) in two-legged matches to decide which team will be one of the finalists of the South American tournament.
It is worth noting that both matches have already been scheduled. First, Flamengo travel to Argentina on October 15, starting at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time). After that, the Most Beloved host Estudiantes at the Maracanã on the 22nd of the same month, at the same time.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the semifinal bracket, Fluminense and Palmeiras compete for the other place in the Libertadores final. The teams face each other on October 14 and 21, with the first leg at the Maracanã and the second at the Nubank Arena in São Paulo. The winner will face whoever advances from the clash between Flamengo and Estudiantes in the competition’s grand final.
Finally, Flamengo’s return to action after the FIFA international break is scheduled for October 8, starting at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time). On that occasion, Flamengo face Santos at Vila Belmiro in the 29th round of the Brasileirão.
