📋 Flamengo and Ceará line up for 'final' showdown in Brasileirão 2025 | OneFootball

The Brasileirão 2025 title could be decided this Wednesday (3).

Flamengo and Ceará face off starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) at Maracanã.

In a match for the 37th round of the competition.

After winning the Libertadores, the Rubro-Negro only depends on itself to seal the BR title.

Meanwhile, Vozão will take the field fighting against relegation (Z-4). 

Standings 📊

Flamengo leads the Brasileirão with 75 points. Five more than Palmeiras, with six points still up for grabs.

In other words: they will win the title if they do their part. But they will also celebrate if they draw or lose and Palmeiras fails to beat Atlético-MG in BH. 

A possible three-point lead for Flamengo going into the final round would virtually secure the title thanks to the goal difference: 50 to 28 at the moment.

There have been 13 wins and five draws at home. All they need is to avoid defeat to finish the BR undefeated in front of their fans. 

Ceará, on the other hand, has 43 points. They will take the field already knowing the results of Vitória (42), Santos (41), and Fortaleza (40). Inter (41) will be playing against São Paulo.

Vozão has four wins, five draws, and nine losses away from home. 

Flamengo ⚫🔴

Filipe Luís is still without Pedro, who is recovering from a forearm fracture and a left thigh injury.

Plata is available again after serving a suspension in the Libertadores final.

The plan was to field the best possible team to try to secure the BR title and then be able to better prepare for the Intercontinental.

And that's what happened. 

Ceará ⚫⚪

Léo Condé is without the starters on the left side of his defensive system.

Willian Machado and Matheus Bahia are serving suspensions.

Pedro Henrique is still recovering from a left hamstring injury.

Bruno Ferreira, Fabiano Souza, Lucas Mugni, Zanocelo, Dieguinho, Galeano, and Fernandinho are one yellow card away from suspension.
