Arrascaeta back in Flamengo XI for Copa do Brasil v Remo | OneFootball

When is the Flamengo vs Remo match?

Flamengo faces Remo this Thursday (19th), at Maracanã, for the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship. The player expected to return to the starting lineup is Arrascaeta, the number 10 from Gávea.

Arrascaeta was even included in the squad list for Flamengo against Botafogo, at Estádio Nilton Santos. However, the number 10 from Gávea did not take the field, spending all 90 minutes on the bench.

Why didn’t Arrascaeta play against Botafogo?

That’s because Flamengo is cautious with Arrascaeta when matches are played on synthetic turf. For this reason, coach Leonardo Jardim decided not to use the midfielder against Botafogo.

Now, against Remo, coach Leonardo Jardim is expected to bring Arrascaeta back to Flamengo’s starting lineup. Therefore, the tendency is for the number 10 to play alongside Paquetá, just like in the match against Cruzeiro, in the Brasileirão.

When is the match?

The match between Flamengo and Remo is scheduled for 8:00 PM (Brasília time) this Thursday (19th), at Maracanã, for the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship. The match will be broadcast on Premiere, via pay-per-view.
