Flamengo could top the Brazilian championship on Saturday (15/11). Rubero Negro will face Carioca Sport, on Ilha do Retiro, at 6:30 p.m., in a postponed match from the 12th round of the competition. Liao is close to being relegated, so this factor could help Rio.
If Flamengo do their homework, they’ll just have to hope Palmeiras doesn’t beat Santos. At the moment, Verdão is leading, but only by the number of wins, as the two teams are tied in terms of points. Rubro-Negro will be able to overtake because they have a good goal difference: 14 more than the São Paulo team.
If Rio draws and São Paulo loses, the overtake also occurs.

The sport came close to decline last Saturday (11/8). Leao achieved his 19th defeat in the Brazilian League, with a 4 x 2 victory over Atletico MG. The Pernambuco side were at the bottom of the competition for 31 rounds, recording the second-worst campaign in the tournament’s history.
Filipe Luis will have to overcome the difficulties caused by a team that has been absent 11 times. Teams will trade one less game than the opponent they had on their account. The Brazilian League will not play any rounds this weekend due to FIFA data, as the Brazilian team has two friendly matches. Alex Sandro and Danilo are in England with the team for the matches against Senegal and Tunisia.
