Brasileirão: will Flamengo v Palmeiras be shown on Globo? | OneFootball

Flamengo vs Palmeiras match takes place from 4 p.m. (Brasília time) this Sunday (19)

Flamengo faces Palmeiras this Sunday (19) in a head-to-head clash in the 29th round of the Brazilian Championship. The match will be played at the Maracanã and broadcast on free-to-air TV by Rede Globo.

In short, the Flamengo vs Palmeiras game will be broadcast live by Rede Globo, with play-by-play by Luis Roberto. In addition, Caio Ribeiro and Fernando Prass will be responsible for commentary.

It’s worth noting that, due to the importance of the clash, Rede Globo has prepared special programming. Thus, host Tiago Medeiros will go live directly from the Maracanã to lead ‘Bora Pro Jogo’ alongside Diego Ribas.

How does Flamengo arrive?

In short, to face Palmeiras, Filipe Luís has a confirmed absence. It’s Everton Cebolinha, who suffered a hip injury in the derby against Botafogo. Besides this absence, Filipe Luís still has a doubt for the head-to-head.

That’s because Saúl, who is already feeling better from ankle pain, has not yet been confirmed in Flamengo’s squad list. In training focused on Palmeiras, the player received ‘special attention’. However, the decision on whether he will play depends on Filipe Luís.

What’s the Brasileirão table like?

Currently, Flamengo is in second place in the Brasileirão table with 58 points, that is, three fewer than leaders Palmeiras, who have 61. Thus, if they beat the São Paulo side this Sunday (19), they will draw level on points with the Alviverde team.

Despite that, Palmeiras would remain at the top of the Brasileirão due to having more wins than Flamengo. However, by beating the Alviverde, Fla would stay more alive than ever in the title race.
