Ponte Preta vs Flamengo: Prediction
Ponte Preta picked most of their points this season at home, but their current form is a big letdown. The team managed just 1 win from their last 5 home games and are coming on the back of two defeats.
Flamengo had flopped in road games all season, but they will sense a chance here against a team that is struggling to move out of the relegation zone.
