Match analysis
Santos vs Flamengo on 8 October sends the title-chasing visitors to a side with four wins in five, and Superior's correct score is a 0-1 Flamengo win, with 2-2 as the alternative. Flamengo are unbeaten in their last five, while Santos sit in mid-table with less riding on the result.
Flamengo are in the title race and have conceded once at most in their last five
The 0-1 reflects Flamengo's defence more than their attack: they won 1-0 at Remo and 2-0 at Independiente del Valle, and conceded a single goal in each of the other three. The model builds expected goals from measured scoring and conceding, and that defensive record outweighs Santos's 1.8 goals a game. Flamengo also won the last two meetings at their own ground, 3-1 in April and 3-2 in November 2025.
Santos won 2-1 at Sao Paulo on 2 October
The 0-1 misses on any other score, and Santos have been scoring: 2-1 at Sao Paulo, 2-1 at Remo, 3-2 at Internacional. They also beat Flamengo 1-0 at home in July 2025. A Santos goal is the most likely way the forecast misses, and the 2-2 alternative carries that route.
