Honestly, it blows my mind how everyone seems to ignore Flamengo in the whole Flamengo vs Bayern Munich prediction thing, especially after they took down Chelsea 3-1. Like, I get it—Bayern has this massive European reputation and all, but people forget Flamengo are kind of a big deal in Brazil. I remember watching that Flamengo vs Chelsea match and thinking, wow, these guys actually have a chance against the top European clubs.

A lot of people just default to picking Bayern because they’re, well, Bayern. But this season, their defense has looked shaky, and Flamengo’s attack is really creative. Plus, with Filipe Luis coaching and some crazy talented young players like Wesley and Walllace Yan, they’re not just some random underdog.

In my experience, fans outside South America just don’t give enough credit to Brazilian clubs. European teams get all the hype, but Flamengo’s group stage performance showed they can handle the pressure. If I had to make my own prediction, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if Flamengo made things difficult, especially since Bayern’s not unbeatable and Flamengo’s got a killer mentality right now. So yeah, don’t sleep on Flamengo! This match could totally go either way.
