A full Maracanã will witness the duel between Flamengo and Cruzeiro this Thursday (02). This is because almost 65,000 tickets have already been issued for the match, which starts at 8:30 pm.

At the moment, tickets are only available for the Upper East Sector of Maracanã. However, the tickets may sell out at any moment, as the clash puts two title contenders of the Brasileirão face to face.

Why is the match decisive?

Flamengo leads the Brazilian Championship with 54 points, four more than the second-placed Cruzeiro. Filipe Luís's team, however, has one less game. Therefore, a Cruzeiro setback this Thursday increases the gap, while a victory decreases it.
