Why does Flamengo take the lead only with a victory over São Paulo?

Currently, Palmeiras leads the Brazilian Championship with 65 points. Since Flamengo has 64, a victory would place them in the first position of the Brasileirão, with 67. It is worth noting that the São Paulo team plays only this Thursday (06).

A draw, however, is far from a good result for Flamengo. This is because, in case of a tied score, the Most Beloved would reach 65 points and remain in second place, due to the tiebreaker criterion (number of victories).

When is the Palmeiras vs Santos game?

Palmeiras, unlike Flamengo, plays only this Thursday (06), against Santos, for the 32nd round of the Brazilian Championship. The match is scheduled to take place at Allianz Parque, starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time).

What time is the Flamengo vs São Paulo game?

The game against São Paulo, at Vila Belmiro, is scheduled for 9:30 PM (Brasília time), for the 32nd round of the Brazilian Championship. Thus, the match will be broadcast by Rede Globo, on open channel, by GETV, on YouTube, and by Premiere, on pay-per-view.
