2025-04-28 | Game Summary

In a dominant display at the Estadio do Maracanã, Flamengo demolished Corinthians 4-0 in their Brazilian Serie A clash on April 27, 2025. The home side showcased their attacking prowess, converting their superior possession (53.5%) into a comfortable victory. Everton opened the scoring early in the 5th minute, setting the tone for Flamengo's dominance. Giorgian de Arrascaeta extended the lead in the 34th minute, followed shortly by Pedro's first goal in the 37th minute. Pedro then sealed the victory with a penalty in the 78th minute.
Corinthians struggled to create meaningful chances, managing only 2 shots on target out of their 8 total shots. Flamengo's defense effectively neutralized Corinthians' attack, preventing them from finding the net. The game saw 14 fouls committed by Flamengo and 12 by Corinthians, with Flamengo receiving 2 yellow cards compared to Corinthians' 1.
The AI prediction correctly forecasted a Flamengo win, and the comprehensive victory aligned with the pre-game analysis that didn't expect a balanced game, given the team rates of Flamengo (0.786) and Corinthians (0.608), along with the home team's win probability of 54.1%. Flamengo demonstrated a strong performance, building on their recent 6-0 victory against Juventude, although they had drawn their two matches prior to that. Corinthians, on the other hand, are struggling to find consistency, having lost 2 of their last 5 games before this match, even though they won the last two games.
Looking ahead, Flamengo faces Cruzeiro on May 4th in another Brazilian Serie A match. Cruzeiro's recent form has been inconsistent, with a mix of wins, losses, and draws in their last five games. Historically, Flamengo has had the upper hand in recent head-to-head matches against Cruzeiro, which could give them a psychological edge. Corinthians will play against Novorizontino in Copa do Brasil. Novorizontino's recent form has been relatively stable, but the recent head-to-head record and team rates suggest Corinthians should be considered a favorite, even playing away from home.
In the context of their previous encounters, Flamengo's dominant win against Corinthians breaks the pattern of close matches seen in their recent history. Corinthians will want to quickly put this match behind them and focus on the upcoming Copa do Brasil match. They must improve their attacking output and shore up their defense to compete effectively.

Flamengo's recent form has been mixed, with two draws, two wins and one defeat in their last five matches, including a dominant 6-0 victory against Juventude.
Corinthians, on the other hand, have two wins, two losses and one draw in their last five games, but they will field with a player less because of a red card on the last match.

The midfield maestro, Giorgian De Arrascaeta, will be pulling the strings, dictating the tempo and creating scoring opportunities.
