The Serie A season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Flamengo and Grêmio promises to be an interesting one.
It's no vacation for neither Flamengo nor Grêmio as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
