Analysis

Our model puts a Flamengo win at 62.9% in this Brasileirao fixture — the clearest call on this fixture. Expected goals run 2.07 to 0.94.

What this probability has been worth

A number is worth what it has been worth. Across 2,054 predictions published before kick-off and scored against the result afterwards, the calls we priced between 55% and 65% came in 49.9% of the time — 379 fixtures in that band. That is 9.6 points below what the model claimed, so read this figure as optimistic: in this range it has been saying more than it could support. We publish the gap rather than quietly shading the number, because a record that only shows its good bands is not a record.

Flamengo are hard to beat

Flamengo have gone 10 matches without losing, though without stringing wins together. That pattern tends to push draw probability up more than it pushes a win probability.

A high-scoring home side

One model here does nothing but estimate how likely the home side is to score four goals or more, and on this fixture it reads 68.5%. Across our settled fixtures that happens about 8% of the time, so this is well above ordinary. It says nothing about who wins — a side can score four and still be caught — but a match where one team is expected to run up a total is one where the scoreline is much harder to call than the result.
