Flamengo is focused on the winning streak in the next five rounds of the Brazilian Championship. To achieve this, Rubro Negro will be able to count on the talent of the duo Arrascaeta and Gerson, who lead the Brasileirão in the number of great chances created.
According to the Sofascore portal, Arrascaeta and Gerson created 11 goal chances each during the Brazilian Championship. Mais Querido's players are tied with Eduardo, from Botafogo, but are ahead in the rankings due to having played fewer games in the points tournament.
Arrascaeta leads the list with 11 chances created in just 23 Brazilian Championship matches. The Uruguayan star averages 0.47 per game. Gerson, who played most of his 27 games in a more offensive position, has a slightly lower average of 0.40.
