Flamengo's last six games at Palmeiras' home were valid for the Brazilian Championship. In 2018, Mengão drew 1-1, with a goal from defender Thuler. The following year, Rubro-Negro already entered the field with the seventh championship title guaranteed and was preparing for the Club World Cup. Even so, Jorge Jesus' Fla ran over their opponent, with goals from Gabigol (two) and Arrascaeta, winning 3-1. Detail: the São Paulo team did not sell tickets to the visiting fans, citing a lack of security. However, those present in the stands threw chairs at the athletes.
In 2020, one of the most emblematic games of the eighth national championship campaign. The red and black squad, led by Domènec Torrent, suffered from an outbreak of Covid-19. At the time, only three starters were available: Gerson, Arrascaeta and Pedro. Even full of boys from Ninho, Mengo managed a heroic 1-1 draw, with a goal from the center forward. The point won was decisive for the title, as Mais Querido was champion by just one difference over vice-president Internacional.
In the 2021 Brasileirão, another victory for Flamengo by 3-1. The goals were scored by Michael (two) and Pedro. Also based on overcoming, as Rubro-Negro had important absences that day, such as Gabigol, Bruno Henrique and Filipe Luís. To make matters worse, Arrascaeta was injured just 22 minutes into the first half.
Now in the last two seasons, two 1-1 draws. In 2022, Dorival Júnior surprised by choosing reserves against Palmeiras. The coach chose to save for the knockout stages of the Copa do Brasil and Libertadores, but, even so, Rubro-Negro opened the scoring with Victor Hugo, however, conceded the draw. Finally, last year, Arrascaeta secured the point, in a match in which Flamengo suffered due to the refereeing.

With a poor performance away from home, the Argentine team tries to stop Mengão's momentum in the first leg of the Libertadores quarterfinals

Estudiantes faces Flamengo this Thursday (18), at 9:30 pm, at Maracanã, for the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores . The Argentine club arrives under pressure due to irregular results in the season and seeks to rediscover the good football of the beginning of the year to overcome one of the strongest teams in Brazil.
In 2025, the La Plata team played 36 matches, totaling 15 wins, eight draws, and 13 losses, with 42 goals scored and 40 conceded, a success rate of just over 49%. Away from home, the record is even more challenging: in 18 away matches, they have recorded just five wins, four draws, and nine losses.
On the other hand, Flamengo has maintained a solid performance at Maracanã , where they have lost only four times this season, only two of which have come against the main team. This makes the match even more difficult for the Argentine team, which will need to overcome one of the most intense atmospheres on the continent.
While performance away from La Plata is a concern, Estudiantes ' home record is positive. In 17 matches, they've won nine, drawn four, and lost four . This home strength could be an asset in the return leg, but first, the team needs to contain Flamengo 's momentum in Rio de Janeiro.
A traditional Libertadores champion, Estudiantes shares the title with River Plate as the most successful Argentine team in the competition and demonstrates experience in knockout stages. In the current edition, they lost only two matches in the group stage, against Universidad de Chile and Botafogo. In the round of 16, they eliminated Cerro Porteño after a 1-0 away win and a 0-0 draw in the return leg in La Plata.

Flamengo begins its journey towards the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores this Thursday (18) . The first leg against Estudiantes (ARG) will be held at Maracanã, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), and will have a full house.
All tickets were sold in advance, guaranteeing an estimated attendance of around 69,000. The expectation is that the Red-Black Nation will fill every section of the stadium , transforming the Maracanã into a cauldron to push the team toward victory.
The team will have important reinforcements. Striker Bruno Henrique and full-back Varela , who were absent last Sunday (14) against Juventude, in the Brazilian Championship , trained normally this Tuesday (16) and should be available to the coach again.
Despite their returns, Rubro-Negro will remain without midfielder Jorginho, full-back Alex Sandro, and defensive midfielder Pulgar , who are still recovering. The likely lineup for the game includes: Rossi; Royal (Varela), Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira, Ayrton Lucas (Viña); Saúl, De La Cruz (Allan), Arrascaeta; Plata, Samuel Lino, and Pedro.
Fans will be able to watch the match live on ESPN (pay TV) and Disney+ (streaming). The second leg will be held next week in La Plata, Argentina, and will determine who advances to the semifinals.
