In Brazil all eyes are on Flamengo and Corinthians tonight

Defences could be picked apart as the Vultures meet Corinthians in Brazilian Serie A tonight, says Tobias Gourlay

  • Flamengo have scored 12 in 6 this season

  • Corinthians have netted in 5/6

  • Back Over 2.5 Goals


Flamengo v Corinthians
Sunday 20:00

The Anatolian Star fell to earth in Turkey yesterday. Alanyaspor crashed our bet to the floor with a 4-0 win over the hosts.

We're finishing the week in Brazil, where Flamengo are hosting Corinthians in the seventh round of the Serie A campaign. We fancy there could be a few goals.

Jorge Sampaoli's Flamengo are an even W3-D0-L3 to this point, having won their last two. The Vultures are heavy favourites to make it three wins a row tonight, despite conceding at least twice in 4/5. They've been better at the other end, striking 12 times across the six outings. Five of the six games have delivered Over 2.5 Goals in total.

Corinthians are W1-D2-L3, but they have found the back of the net in 5/6. Four of those games got to Over 2.5 Goals - as have 5/7 head-to-head meetings of these two. At around even money on the Exchange, we'll back this one to finish on the high side of the line.
