  • Flamengo have the most scored goals (10) in Carioca Serie A

This is a match between two teams close to each other, usually meaning extra tension and significance.

Bangu form and stats

The hosts won their first Carioca Serie A game here at Estádio Municipal General Raulino de Oliveira, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Bangu last season were 1 win, 3 draws and 1 loss from 5 games.

The Bangu goalkeeper is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 258 minutes without conceding a goal in the Carioca Serie A.

Bangu enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Portuguesa RJ's place. The match ended 1-0.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Resende.

The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on Flamengo to win. Let's see if Bangu are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: 4 games found revealing 0 Bangu wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.

There will be little rest for Bangu after this match as they are travelling to Nova Iguacu for a Carioca Serie A game in only four days.

At Estádio Municipal General Raulino de Oliveira, Bangu has the goal stats of 1-0 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.

Flamengo form and stats

The visitors settled for one point in their first Carioca Serie A away game of the season. During their previous season 19 away games resulted in 7 wins, 5 draws and 7 defeats.

Flamengo have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper. It's been 229 minutes since they last conceded .

Flamengo go into this game after a win, the home game against Nova Iguacu that ended 5-0. As mentioned above, Flamengo was the only team on the pitch versus Nova Iguacu in their previous game, winning 5-0. This could be a tougher task.

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Madureira that ended 0-0.

Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset. We checked our Tipsway database for earlier, recent games with Flamengo given similar win odds in an away game. This check revealed 5 matches with 4 wins as expected, 1 draw and 0 surprise home wins. The favourites won 1 of these games by at least two goals.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Flamengo manager de Oliveira as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Palmeiras.

Flamengo have the goal stats of 0-0 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

There are 26 state football leagues in Brazil. Because of long distances in Brazil a very competitive football culture developed within each state. Therefore, Brazil remain one of the few countries who still run state championships alongside the national ones. Most of them run from January to May, outside the national season.
