It’s classic day of the millions. At Maracanã, Flamengo and Vasco face each other from 6:10 pm (Brasília time) in a classic valid for the 10th round of the Guanabara Cup.
With Pedro out due to pain in the adductor muscle of his left thigh, Vítor Pereira opted for a tactical change. He will play with Gerson in midfield and Gabigol as a striker. Thiago Maia, like what he did against Independiente del Valle, will continue playing alongside defenders Fabrício Bruno and David Luiz.
After repeating the lineup in the last two games, Barbieri will change the team to face Flamengo. The coach’s intention is to change the strategy, just as it happened in the classics against Fluminense and Botafogo. The big news is the return of Andrey Santos.
With that, the tendency is for Erick Marcus to go to the bench, and Barbieri climbs the midfield with three defensive midfielders: Rodrigo, Andrey and Jair. Another change could be the debut of Manuel Capasso, who was regularized by the club last week, but had been training since mid-February.
Bet 1: Both to score – 1.95
The most popular classic of the Carioca Championship will have another chapter this weekend and brings Flamengo under pressure for the title lost in the Recopa Sul-Americana against a Vasco that has had good results recently. Therefore, it is a good guess to believe that both teams will score at least one goal in the Rio derby.
Bet 2: To have +0.5 goals in the 1st half – 1.44
When it comes to two very offensive teams in this Carioca Championship, it is a considerable guess to believe that at least one goal will be scored in the first 45 minutes of the duel between Flamengo and Vasco.
To have +9.5 corners in the match – 1.66
Taking into account the statistics of the two teams, there is a good tendency for several corner kicks to be scored in the game, and it is a good guess to believe that at least ten corner kicks will be scored in the game between Vasco and Flamengo on the Maracanã lawn.
