Flamengo returns to the field on Thursday (31), when they face off against Atlético-MG. Therefore, on Wednesday (30), Filipe Luís will lead the team's last training session before the first leg of the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals. In addition, the coach will define the starting lineup that will take to the field at Maracanã.
Initially, Filipe Luís' idea is to spare some players. However, if he wants to repeat the lineup that faced Atlético-MG in the Brasileirão, the starting lineup would be: Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Viña; Allan, Jorginho and Arrascaeta; Bruno Henrique, Plata and Pedro. However, the team will still be defined in this Wednesday's (30) afternoon training session.
In summary, according to Flamengo's schedule, the red-black squad will begin their last activity before the first leg of the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals with a training session on Wednesday afternoon (30). The training session is scheduled to start at 3:30 PM (Brasília time) at Ninho do Urubu.
Thus, at the CT, Filipe Luís will define Flamengo's starting lineup to face Atlético-MG. It is worth noting that, despite the probable lineup mentioned above, the red-black coach is likely to field a different team. This is because, as mentioned earlier, the last training session will define the starting lineup.
In summary, Flamengo is the current champion of the Copa do Brasil. This is because, in 2024, the team defeated Atlético-MG in the two-legged final. First, at Maracanã, Flamengo beat the Minas Gerais team 3-1. Then, at Arena MRV in Belo Horizonte, the red-black team won the title by defeating Atlético-MG 1-0.
It is important to note that SporTV, on pay-per-view channel, and Premiere, through pay-per-view, will broadcast the Flamengo x Atlético-MG game live. On the other hand, on Coluna do Fla TV, the red-black fan can check all the details of the post-match press conference.
