Flamengo and Fluminense decide the Carioca champion on Sunday (08) at Maracanã


Flamengo is going through a turbulent time with a drop in performance and changes in coaches. Given the context, the Most Beloved faces Fluminense in the final of the Carioca this Sunday (08). Despite the phase, the Red-Black can exploit the defensive fragility of their rival.

This is because Fluminense has played 13 games this season and conceded 11 goals. In other words, only in two matches did Luis Zubeldía's team not concede goals. However, the Red-Black scored 30 times in 15 matches.
