Fluminense and Mirassol set for historic first-ever clash | OneFootball

Fluminense takes the field this Wednesday (8th) for an unprecedented duel in Brazilian football. For the first time in history, the Tricolor das Laranjeiras will face Mirassol, in a postponed match valid for the 13th round of the Brazilian Championship.

The match will take place at the Estádio José Maria de Campos Maia, in São Paulo, and marks the first chapter between the clubs. This duel happens precisely in the season when the São Paulo team is playing in the top division of the Brazilian Championship for the first time.

While Flu is looking to get closer to the Libertadores qualification zone, Mirassol is trying to get back to winning ways after three games without a victory.

Despite their short journey in the top division, Mirassol has had a solid Brasileirão and currently occupies sixth place, with 43 points. Fluminense comes right behind, in seventh, with 38.

A good result away from home could put the Tricolor back in the fight for the top positions and boost the team's confidence in the final stretch of the Brasileirão.
