Internacional vs Flamengo prediction, preview, team news and more | Brasileiro Serie A 2022

The 2022 Brasileiro Serie A campaign continues and will see Internacional host Flamengo at the Estadio Beira-Rio on Saturday.

Internacional have struggled to pick up wins in the league of late. They played out a 1-1 draw against Santos in their last game, benefitting massively from to the grossly wasteful finishings of their opposition to pick up the sole point.

The hosts sit seventh in the league table with 15 points from 10 games. They will now be looking to return to winning ways when they play on Saturday.

Flamengo have failed to impress in the Brasileiro Serie A this season, prompting the dismissal of manager Paulo Sousa less than six months after his appointment. They were beaten 1-0 by 10-man Red Bull Bragantino in their last game as they displayed a lack of inventiveness in front of goal.

The Mengão have picked up just 12 points from 10 games this season and sit 14th in the league table. They will be looking to get their campaign back on track this weekend.
