Competition: Brazil Serie A
Competition: Sat 08.October
Match begins: 22:00 (UTC)
Venue: Arena Pantanal (7000 seats)

This league season has been demanding for Cuiabá so far, while Flamengo have enjoyed many victories. Will the guests take a new scalp at Arena Pantanal?

Insights:
  • Cuiabá have the fewest scored goals (22) in Serie A
  • Flamengo have scored more than double the goals of Cuiabá.

Flamengo have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Cuiabá and Flamengo.
