Flamengo Nova Iguaçu betting prediction

The away team comes to his 3^rd round in the 2^nd position, with 4 points won, after 1 win and 1 draw. In their debut in this group stage they tied at home against Vasco da Gama by (1‑1). In the second round, they won at home against Sampaio Corrêa RJ by (1‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 22 goals scored and 9 conceded; against 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 18 goals scored and 10 conceded. Their last away match was for the Copa Rio and ended in a win by (1‑2) against Serrano RJ. In the last 10 away matches Nova Iguaçu has won 5, tied 4 and lost 1. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches.

After opening with a draw against Vasco's alternative team, Nova Iguaçu did their homework and beat Sampaio Corrêa at home in the last round of the Carioca Championship. Now, on Matchday 3, Nova Iguaçu will have a good challenge against Flamengo, who will be playing without their main squad, who are in pre-season in the USA. Therefore, there is a lot of expectation regarding the team's performance in Round 3, since the points won in these first rounds could be crucial for a possible place in the semi-finals or, at least, in the Rio Cup. It's worth remembering that Nova Iguaçu depend on their performance in the state to qualify for a national championship (Série D or Copa).
