Fluminense, only side to beat Flamengo at the Maracanã in 35 league games | OneFootball

Fluminense heads into the derby with an interesting stat in its favor at the Maracanã. Despite Flamengo’s strong home record, Tricolor is the only club to have managed to beat its rival at the stadium in the Brazilian Championship over Rubro-Negro’s last 35 matches.

More than that, it happened twice. In this recent stretch of the competition, no other team has managed to overcome Flamengo at the Maracanã, while Fluminense was responsible for the rival’s only home defeats.

The statistic released by Flashscore reinforces how competitive the derby is and shows that, even with Flamengo’s favorable recent history as the home side, Fluminense has been able to snap Rubro-Negro’s run right at the venue of the clash. The record serves as extra motivation for Tricolor ahead of the next meeting between the teams this Sunday.
