See more details on where to watch, statistics, lineup, and match history.
The match will be broadcast live on Premiere.
Leader of the Brazilian Championship, Flamengo cannot focus solely on the final on the 29th, in Lima, Peru. As the team still has a match next Tuesday against Atlético-MG, coach Filipe Luis needs to manage the players' fatigue with an eye on the big decision.
Inconsistency has marked the Rubro-Negro's campaign in recent games. With 71 points, Fla comes from a defeat in the classic against Fluminense and has won only two of the last five matches.
For this Saturday's match, Filipe Luis lost Erick Pulgar and Saul, who received their third yellow card in the Fla-Flu. Pedro (muscle injury) and Allan (plantar fasciitis) remain out. On the other hand, the starting team should see the return of Varela, Alex Sandro, and Arrascaeta.
Filipe Luis's main doubts are in defense, where Léo Ortiz might be replaced by Danilo and be an option for the second half, and in midfield, with the competition between Evertton Araújo and De La Cruz for a spot.
Meanwhile, Red Bull Bragantino is boosted by three consecutive victories against strong opponents, Corinthians, São Paulo, and Atlético-MG. With 45 points on the table and in eighth place, Massa-Bruta still dreams of a spot in the Libertadores.
Vagner Mancini will make changes in defense due to the suspension of Alix Vinícius and the return of Pedro Henrique. Delivered to the medical department or in transition, Guzmán Rodríguez, Bruno Gonçalves, Eric Ramires, Matheus Fernandes, Henry Mosquera, Agustin Sant’Anna, and Vinicinho will be definite absences.
The teams have faced each other 22 times in history. There have been 8 victories for Flamengo, 7 draws, and 7 wins for Red Bull Bragantino. See the results of the last matches:
