Currently, they sit 15th in the league and are unbeaten in four consecutive matches-two draws in the league and two in the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil.

In their upcoming clash against Flamengo, Fernando Diniz's squad faces a significant challenge but will aim to extend their unbeaten run and improve their away record.
