Flamengo are heading into this match after a rough patch, having lost their last two games without scoring. They did pick up a big win just before that, though, which shows they have quality in the squad. Mirassol, on the other hand, are finding it hard to win lately, with two draws in a row and losses before that, but they are at least managing to score and stay competitive.

When these two met recently, it was a very one-sided game with Flamengo winning 5-1 and scoring plenty of goals. Given that result and the fact that Flamengo are the stronger side on paper, they should bounce back and take the win here, even if their recent form has been shaky.
