Flamengo hopes to continue their current form in the Brasileiro this week when they take on Chapecoense. The match is scheduled for Tuesday at the Arena Conda with kickoff at 2 am.
The hosts are currently winless in over two months in the league. On the other hand, the opponents regained their current form to sit third in the table.
Chapecoense is currently on a run of 10 games without a win, while the most recent victory – 2-1 away at Bragantino in early September – was, in fact, the only one of the season. Given that Serie A is 29 rounds old now, this sequence of results also means that Chapecoense has not won for more than half a season.
Chape won 14 seven matches, drew 1, and lost 14 of them to sit on 28 points, 25 behind Gremio in 19th and 33 from safety.
With 24 points still available for our team, the relegation is no more certainty against Flamengo as a truer test of whether we are as poor as we have been this season.
However, that malaise hasn’t continued into November, with Flamengo winning their last six games in all competitions.
Four straight victories in the Brasileirao, including beating Atletico Mineiro away on Friday night, were followed by two goals in three minutes to beat 10-man Fluminense 6-2 on Sunday.
