Flamengo vs Atletico Mineiro Prediction and Betting Tips | July 27th 2025

Flamengo will host Atletico Mineiro at the Estadio do Maracana on Sunday in another round of the 2025 Brasileirao Serie A campaign. The home side have enjoyed a strong season and will fancy themselves early title contenders as they sit second in the table, just one point behind league leaders Cruzeiro despite playing a game fewer.

They beat Red Bull Bragantino 2-1 in their last match falling behind early after the restart and then drawing level midway through the half via a Leo Pereira header before Wesley scored a late winner in what could be his last appearance for the club as the fullback closes in on a move to Roma.

Atletico Mineiro have had mixed results in the league this season, although they remain hopeful of a top-six finish. They were beaten 3-2 by Palmeiras last time out in the Brasileirao Serie A, with Hulk's two stunning free-kick goals ultimately counting as mere consolation efforts.

The visitors sit ninth in the table with 20 points from 14 matches. They will be looking to shake off their latest results and return to winning ways when they play on Sunday.
