GUESSES:

Luca Young (Vasco sector manager): “Vasco’s team has not yet performed as expected, but there is room for progress with the presence of Payet in midfield. Counting on the rivalry that every classic has, I expect a good game, where Vasco tries to defend itself and looks for a game against -attack against Flamengo’s star-studded squad to score” Guess: Basque 1 x 1 Flamengo
Gabriel Mansur (Vasco sector manager):“There were those who said that Vasco would no longer face Flamengo with unequal forces, but the truth is that this eventual balance is very far from happening. Without Paulinho, Vasco bets all its chips on Payet in one against one. Flamengo, for In turn, it comes with all its best players, including Éverton Cebolinha, Pedro, Varela and Fabrício Bruno, who were rested in the last game. Despite being a classic, it is impossible not to consider Flamengo’s million-dollar squad as big favorites for the clash. I’m betting on a victory even with some peace of mind.” Guess: Basque 1 x 3 Flamengo
