This highly anticipated single-match competition will see Flamengo, winners of the 2024 Copa Betano do Brasil, face off against Botafogo, champions of the 2024 Brasileirão Betano.

According to Guilherme Figueiredo, Brazil Country Manager at Betano, “This new partnership further cements our commitment to Brazilian football and strengthens our ties with the CBF. We are present at the country’s biggest national championships, offering thrilling experiences to sports fans within a new and secure regulatory framework. It will be a great match—a true Rio de Janeiro classic between champions.”

Previously known as the Supercopa do Brasil, the competition has adopted the name Supercopa Rei since last year, in honor of Pelé, the eternal king of Brazilian football.
