Team Reviews
Fluminense RJ are entering this Brazil Serie A Matchday 34 clash at Estádio do Maracanã on November 19, 2025, in average form, sitting 7th with 45 points from 33 matches (13 wins, 6 draws, 14 losses). Their recent form shows two wins, one draw, and two losses in the last five league games, including a 2-1 win over Botafogo and a 1-1 draw against Internacional. They've scored 42 goals and conceded 37, averaging 1.3 goals scored and 1.1 conceded per game. At home, Fluminense are solid, winning 8 of 16 league games, with goalkeeper Fábio keeping 4 clean sheets. Coach Luiz Zubeldía's 4-1-4-1 relies on Germán Cano's finishing (6 goals) and Kevin Serna's creativity (5 assists). Injuries to Ganso (knee) and Facundo Bernal (hamstring) are concerns, but Everaldo is available. Fluminense will leverage their home crowd to challenge Flamengo, aiming for a top-6 finish.
Flamengo are in title-contending form, sitting 1st with 71 points from 33 matches (22 wins, 5 draws, 6 losses). Their recent form includes four wins and one loss in the last five, with a 3-0 win over Juventude and a 2-1 loss to Palmeiras. They've scored 58 goals and conceded 24, averaging 1.8 goals scored and 0.7 conceded per game. Away form is strong, with 10 wins in 16 road games. Coach Filipe Luís's 4-2-3-1 depends on Pedro's finishing (17 goals) and Giorgian De Arrascaeta's playmaking (13 assists). No major injuries are reported, but the team's fatigue from Copa Libertadores commitments is a factor. Flamengo will aim to dominate possession and secure the title with a win, extending their 4-game unbeaten run against Fluminense.
Head to Head
Fluminense and Flamengo have met 386 times historically, with Flamengo winning 141, Fluminense 120, and 125 draws, averaging 2.5 goals per game. Flamengo are unbeaten in their last 4 meetings with Fluminense (3 wins, 1 draw), including a 2-1 win in May 2025. At Maracanã, Fluminense have won 5 of the last 10 against Flamengo, but the last 3 were draws or Flamengo wins. Both teams scored in 50% of the last 10, but Flamengo kept 3 clean sheets in the last 5. Flamengo's recent dominance gives them an edge, but Fluminense's home resilience keeps it competitive.
Prediction
Flamengo's title momentum and attacking depth (1.8 goals per game) make them favorites, but Fluminense's home form (8 wins in 16) and rivalry history (125 draws) suggest a tight contest. Flamengo's fatigue from continental duties could be exploited. I predict a 1-1 draw, with Cano scoring for Fluminense and Pedro for Flamengo. Draw probability is around 35%, reflecting Flamengo's 3-0 Juventude win and Fluminense's 2-1 Botafogo result. Expect Flamengo to edge possession (around 55%) and corners (7-9), with Fluminense relying on counters. The game will be intense, with the Fla-Flu rivalry ensuring a hard-fought point for both sides.
