Cruzeiro Esporte Clube vs CR Flamengo Prediction 20 October 2023

On the night of Thursday to Friday, Belo Horizonte will host the match of the twenty-seventh round of the Brazilian Serie A between Cruzeiro and Flamengo.

Both a year ago in Serie B, and now Cruzeiro boast high defensive reliability, which slightly compensates for their limited attacking potential. After games with Bragantino (0:0), Santos (3:0), Fluminense (0:1), America MG (1:1) and Cuiaba (0:0), the Crusaders are thirteenth with 31 points and a goal difference of 24:22.

At the same time, Flamengo maintain fifth position with 44 points and a scored-conceded balance of 38:31. It should be noted that in the recent past, the Red-Blacks defeated Botafogo 2:1 and Bahia 1:0, drew 0:0 with Goiás and 1:1 with Corinthians, and also laid down their arms to Atlético Paranaense - 0:3.

As for us, Cruzeiro have enough strength to slightly dampen the attacking impulse of the opponents, who are now not in optimal condition. So, the match will not be rich in goals scored.
