Flamengo and Mirassol face off this Wednesday (02) at the Maracanã in a postponed match from the fourth round of the Brazilian Championship. Looking to close the gap on leaders Palmeiras, the Rubro-Negro arrive with an important advantage for the clash.
Mirassol have not won an away game in the Brasileirão since April. On that occasion, the São Paulo side beat Internacional 2-1 at Beira-Rio. That win came in the 12th round of the national competition.
Since then, Mirassol have gone six away matches without a victory. Their record in that span includes two draws and four defeats. Therefore, their weakness on the road worries the coaching staff of the São Paulo team and encourages Flamengo.
This stat carries even more weight given Flamengo’s strong record. That is because Mengão are among the five best home teams in the Brasileirão this season. In 11 matches at the Maracanã, the team has seven wins, three draws, and just one defeat.
Flamengo sit second in the Brasileirão with 48 points. The team is four points behind leaders Palmeiras in the national competition. In 24 matches, Leonardo Jardim’s side has 14 wins, six draws, and four defeats.
Mirassol, meanwhile, are fighting to move away from the relegation zone. The team is in 16th place, with 25 points so far. In 24 matches, the São Paulo side has six wins, seven draws, and 11 defeats.
Even so, Mirassol come into the match needing points to pull further away from the relegation zone. However, their recent away record works against the São Paulo team’s ambitions. Flamengo, therefore, take the field as clear favorites based on their own record.
Flamengo could have Anthony Valencia and Joaquín Freitas available for the match. The two signings were officially announced by the club this Tuesday (01). As a result, the fans are already looking forward to the possible debuts of the new arrivals at the Maracanã.
However, both still need to be registered in the CBF’s Daily Information Bulletin. Therefore, the board is racing against time to sort out the paperwork before the match. Leonardo Jardim can only use the new signings after official confirmation in the BID.
The match between Flamengo and Mirassol takes place this Wednesday (02), in a postponed game from the fourth round of the Brasileirão. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. Brasília time at the Maracanã.
