Flamengo Form

Flamengo are one of the hottest teams to enter the FIFA Club World Cup, having secured six victories in their last seven matches across competitions.

The last time Fogo didn’t beat their opposition was in mid-May, a Serie A clash against Botafogo ending in a goalless draw.

Since then, they earned four consecutive victories against Botafogo 4-2 (Brazilian Cup), Palmeiras 2-0, Deportivo Tachira 1-0 (Copa Libertadores) and most recently Fortaleza 5-0.

Esperance de Tunis Form

Esperance de Tunis’ most recent appearances were in the national cup, where they outplayed Zarzis 3-1 and Ben Guerdane 3-0 in the second half of May to reach the grand finals.

In the final match, Esperance defeated Stade Tunisien 1-0 earlier this month, the only goal being scored by Onuche Ogbelu in the 67th minute.

They had a great run in the Ligue Professionnelle, successfully defending the title after collecting 66 points in 30 matches (19 wins, nine draws, two defeats), allowing just 22 goals.

Team News

Flamengo can’t count on Nicolas De La Cruz who is recovering from a knee injury.

As for the African side, Roger Aholou is sidelined with a muscle injury.

Predicted Starting Lineups

Flamengo: Rossi, Varela, Ortiz, Danilo, Sandro, Gerson, Pulgar, De Arrascaeta, Araujo, Everton, Pedro

Esperance de Tunis: Said, Ali, Hamida, Guenichi, Djabri, Jebali, Elassi, Ogbelu, Yougai, Sasse, Belaili

Verdict

Flamengo v Esperance de Tunis

Both sides are having strong defensive records in 2025, so I don’t think we will witness a lot of goals in Philadelphia. Under 2.5 goals is the best bet.
