Flamengo are coming from a 3-0 win over Universidad Catolica in the Copa Libertadores and will hope to carry this form to the Serie A as they host Goias. In the Brazilian Serie A, Flamengo have six points and are placed 16th while Goias, on eight points, are 13th. For Flamengo, this is the second of three straight home matches and they should make it count. They are doing better in the Copa Libertadores than Serie A and this is also something they’ll be looking to change, having managed just a win in six league matches. Their scoring run is good though; in the last five matches they’ve scored two or more goals in four matches and go into this one with just one defeat in the last seven games. A 3-1 win over Sao Paulo is their only home win in three league matches and they head into this one having failed to score in the last two.

Goias were slow starters to the league but have done well in their recent matches. Going into this game they are unbeaten in the last three games and in the two right before this one, they registered wins. Goias are coming from a 1-0 win over Santos and will be out to down another giant. They’ve also improved defensively, keeping two straight clean sheets ahead of this game, and one thing they’ll want to build on is their scoring run. The visitors have scored in each of their last six matches. Two times in the last four matches, they’ve scored two goals, and after their first away win, beating Atlético Goianiense, they will be very confident going into this game. They will be hoping for a first win in seven meetings with Flamengo.
