High-flying Flamengo will be looking to open up a six-point lead at the top of the Brasileiro Serie A table when they play host to Cuiaba on Saturday.
Having failed to taste victory in any of their previous three visits to the Estadio do Maracana, the Dourado will be looking to end this poor run and snap their four-match winless run this weekend.
We say: Flamengo 2-0 Cuiaba
While Cuiaba will be looking to find their feet this weekend, they take on a Flamengo side who are currently firing on all cylinders. Tite's side have made their home turf a fortress, and we see them cruising to another win at the Maracana.

Sao Paulo will be aiming to retain their place in the Brasileiro top four when they face Bragantino on Sunday at Morumbi.
Meanwhile, a victory for the visitors would see them leapfrog the hosts in the table and potentially climb into Copa Libertadores contention.
We say: Sao Paulo 1-1 Bragantino
Three out of the last six encounters between Sao Paulo and Braga have ended in draws, and we predict Sunday's clash will follow the same pattern. The home side have not been flawless at home, while the visitors have shown some resilience on the road.
