How and Where to Watch: Cruzeiro vs. Flamengo live on beIN SPORTS

Flamengo continues its defense of the Copa Libertadores title against Cruzeiro 

One of the standout ties of the Copa Libertadores Round of 16 is an enticing all-Brazilian matchup, live on beIN SPORTS on Wednesday August 12th.

Flamengo are the defending champions of the Copa Libertadores and are taking on Cruzeiro in what is set to be a fiery affair. Leonardo Jardim'a side are currently in fine form, in second spot in the Brazilian league and having lost just one of the team's last 17 Copa Libertadores matches. 

The Brazilian giants were one of the strongest performers in the group stages with five wins from six and 14 goals scored. This superiority is in part due to current club legend, Bruno Henrique, who has four goals in two assists in the current competition. 

Flamengo will still need to be on the watch for another footballer who has four goals in the Copa Libertadores in 2026, Cruzeiro's Matheus Pereira. 

With Cruzeiro's stingy defense letting in just three goals in six Copa Libertadores group games, Flamengo's first-rate attack will need to be on top form live on beIN SPORTS.
