Abel Ferreira boosted for Flamengo v Palmeiras in Brasileirão | OneFootball

Which player could start in the Flamengo vs Palmeiras match?

Flamengo and Palmeiras take the field this Saturday (23) in a match being treated as an ‘early final’ of the Brasileirão. Given the situation, coach Abel Ferreira could count on the return of a ‘reinforcement’ for the clash, which takes place at 9 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã.

In training this Thursday (21), Abel Ferreira had Felipe Anderson available, as he has recovered from a left thigh injury. As a result, the player is once again an option for Palmeiras in midfield.

It is important to note that Felipe Anderson took part in only his first session since the injury. Even though he is fit to play, the decision on whether the player will be included in the squad will be made after Friday’s training session (22).
