Flamengo vs Bayern Betting Tips: Club World Cup Round of 16

29th June 2025

Sunday night in Miami brings a blockbuster Club World Cup clash between Flamengo and Bayern Munich, kicking off at 9pm BST. Flamengo come in as South America’s most impressive outfit, seeing off Chelsea to finish Group D unbeaten. Statz.ai makes Bayern favourites with a 2-1 win most likely, but the gap is narrower than the odds suggest @8/11 Bayern (Bet365), with Flamengo well-placed to cause problems. Here’s some more Flamengo vs Bayern Betting Tips.

Olise’s Moment

The former Crystal Palace man has been a revelation since joining Bayern Munich. Michael Olise was one of the players Vincent Kompany turned to at half-time when trailing Benfica, having already scored or assisted in each of Bayern’s seven matches prior to that.The 23-year-old is @11/10 to score or assist in this game with Olise second and first on the projections to do either. Olise also tops the team’s shot count over the last ten games averaging 3.3 a game.

Disciplinary Angles

Referee Michael Oliver takes charge of this high-stakes clash, and while the Englishman only produced one yellow card in his lone appearance at this tournament so far, the added intensity of a knockout game could bring his average closer to the statz.ai projection of four cards. Flamengo’s fullbacks provide the most likely avenue for a slice of cheese especially given their opposing wingers they are facing. Wesley Lima and Alex Sandro hold great individual @9/2 and @2/1 and double value @14/1 (Bet 365) with the highest projections of the game. Flamengo rank fourth in the tournament for fouls averaging 15.3 a game with Luiz Araujo leading the team in fouls with an average of three a game with @4/5 to commit two decent value (Bet365) – Sandro tops the projections here again with two fouls expected.

Best Player Angles

For our final set of Flamengo vs Bayern Betting Tips, combining Olise to register a goal contribution, with Luiz Araújo 2+ fouls, or a Sandro card, could form the core of a high-upside builder in what could be a fiery contest. The tackle market is highly anticipated with many Flamengo players locked out at the time of writing with the team averaging 18 a game, eighth highest in the competition, making it hard to make a play for that angle. Gerson to register a shot on target for the underdogs @11/10 (Bet 365) could offer more value with the winger averaging 1.5 a game in this tournament. If the Brazilians fall behind and have to chase the game expect them to put Bayern under some pressure with weather conditions and fitness also in their favour.
