With Filipe Luís in charge, Flamengo faces Fluminense this Sunday (25th) in a match valid for the fourth round of the Carioca. For the classic, the Most Beloved will be missing Arrascaeta, who is still preparing for the 2026 season.
In summary, Arrascaeta used Sunday (25th) to train at Ninho do Urubu. Besides the number 10, Flamengo has five other confirmed absences for the classic against Fluminense: Danilo, Ayrton Lucas, Saúl, De La Cruz, and Jorginho.
It is important to note that Jorginho was still a doubt for the classic against Fluminense. However, as he only completed one training session before the game after having a wisdom tooth extracted, the midfielder was also left out of Filipe Luís's squad list.
Flamengo and Fluminense will face off starting at 6 PM (Brasília time) this Sunday (25th). In summary, the Fla-Flu classic takes place at Maracanã, valid for the fourth round of the Campeonato Carioca.
It is important to highlight that the Flamengo vs. Fluminense match will be broadcast live by Rede Globo on open TV. Additionally, Premiere, through pay-per-view, and GETV on YouTube, will also show the Carioca classic.
After the main team took over the Carioca matches, Flamengo achieved its first victory in the competition. In Group B, the Most Beloved reached four points in four matches played.
Currently, Flamengo occupies the fifth position in Group B of the Carioca. Fluminense, this Sunday's (25th) opponent, is in second place in Group A, with six points, two wins, and one loss in the State Championship.
