After the success of Brazilian teams in the last Club World Cup, the world has started to look at the Brasileirão with new eyes. A reflection of this is that the championship will now be shown in England and Ireland on free-to-air TV, pay TV, and via streaming. However, there is a detail in the agreement: matches in which Flamengo is the home team are not included in the package.
This is because Flamengo did not sign the contract. After all, the club broadcasts Filipe Luís' team's home matches at Maracanã abroad on its own, through flamengotv.live. The 19 home matches of Mengão feature live images and commentary by João Guilherme.
In addition to England and Ireland, the following countries have also reached agreements to broadcast the Brasileirão: Germany, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Turkey, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Ukraine, Montenegro, Serbia, Kosovo, Slovenia, Israel, Russia, Chile, Peru, and Ecuador. In Europe in general, two matches per round will be shown. Portugal and Spain are exceptions, as they have the rights to broadcast four live matches per round.
On Sunday (31), when Flamengo faces Grêmio, there will be no broadcast on the channels of those respective countries. After all, the match will be at Maracanã. Therefore, only flamengotv.live will be able to show the 22nd round clash of the Brasileirão abroad.
In Brazil, however, Flamengo vs Grêmio will be broadcast by Globo and Premiere, on free-to-air and pay-per-view networks, respectively. The match kicks off at 4pm (Brasília time). The best coverage of the match will be on Coluna do Fla, which will bring you everything about the clash before, during, and after the match on the website, social media, and YouTube.
