Flamengo vs Cruzeiro Prediction & Betting Tips - Brasileirão Serie A

 by Daniel Ngulu | in Football Predictions

The two losses have deflated Flamengo and they head to this game on just one win in their last five matches but at home they have done slightly better, having garnered three wins and two losses, in the process scoring eight goals and conceding four. Winless in four of the last five matches and without a clean sheet in the last five matches, Flamengo head to this game on a very uninspiring run. They have won four and lost three of their last 10 but their scoring record is not that bad, having netted in 11 of the last 15 matches. They can bank on their home performance, having won six of the last 10 at their backyard and nine of the last 15. In Serie A, Flamengo have seven wins in 10 at home with six clean sheets in that period. They have scored in 11 of the last 12 league matches at home. They take on a Cruzeiro side bringing two wins, a draw and two losses in their last five matches. Away from home in the last five Cruzeiro have scored five and conceded four goals, having managed two wins, a loss and two draws. They have four wins in their last 11 matches, and scored in 12 of the last 15 and away from home Cruzeiro have three losses in the last 12. They carry to the game a run of just two wins in Serie A and have not been so good on the road in the league too, with a four – game winless run away from home in Serie A and just three wins in 15. This match is usually not a very high scoring game; in the last nine meetings, this match has yielded under 2.5 goals in eight. Head to head, the teams have faced off 40 times with Flamengo winning 13 and Cruzeiro 19.

Our Flamengo vs Cruzeiro Prediction

This is a very interesting match up for the two sides as they face off just three days after meeting in the Copa Libertadores and it will be interesting to see how Flamengo reacts after a 2 – 0 loss at the same venue. The hosts will be pressured to go for a win as a statement ahead of their Libertadores return at the end of the month but most importantly they will be spurred by the need to go back on top of the log and a good run at home in the league should push them here. They have won seven of their last 10 and picked six clean sheets in the process, while Cruzeiro have managed just two wins in the last eight league matches and three in 15. Winless in their last four away matches in the league, Cruzeiro may struggle again here and we are backing a Flamengo win. While keeping with the low scoring nature of this game, a bet of under 2.5 goals will do here.
