Flamengo will have two important returns for the duel with Atlético-MG. Midfielders Saúl and Pulgar, who were suspended in the match against Red Bull Bragantino, are available to coach Filipe Luís.

On the other hand, the Rubro-Negro continues with two absences for the game in Belo Horizonte. Defender Léo Ortiz (thigh strain) and forward Pedro (forearm fracture) remain in the medical department and will not face Atlético-MG.

And Flamengo's lineup?

Despite having most of the squad available, it is unlikely that Filipe Luís will field all the starters to face Atlético-MG, due to the Libertadores final, which takes place this Saturday at 6 PM (Brasília time) at the Estadio Monumental in Lima, Peru. Flamengo will face Palmeiras, seeking revenge for the 2021 decision. Thus, it would not be surprising if Filipe Luís mixes the team that will take the field this Tuesday.

Flamengo can also be crowned Brazilian champion this Tuesday. They just need to win and count on a defeat of Palmeiras, who play at the same time as the Rubro-Negro, against Grêmio, at the Arena. Currently, Filipe Luís's team leads the Brasileirão with 74 points – four more than Verdão, in second place.
