The ball is about to roll for the match between Flamengo and Bahia this Sunday (19), in the 12th round of the Brasileirão. Facing the Rubro-Negro, the team from Bahia will have to deal with the absence of two players, in addition to Rogério Ceni being unavailable.
That’s because, after receiving his third yellow card in the last round, Rogério Ceni will have to serve a suspension against Flamengo. In addition, goalkeeper Ronaldo is recovering from a dislocated elbow, while Ruan Pablo is being treated for ligament damage in his left ankle.
Yes! Bahia has three players one booking away with two yellow cards this Sunday (19): Luciano Juba, Rodrigo Nestor and Jean Lucas. That means if they are booked against Flamengo, they will have to serve a suspension in the next round of the Brasileirão.
Coach Leonardo Jardim has three confirmed absences for the match against Bahia. Jorginho is still recovering from a muscle injury in his left calf, while Pulgar is dealing with a right shoulder injury. Finally, Jorge Carrascal will serve a suspension after being sent off against Fluminense.
The match between Flamengo and Bahia will take place at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) this Sunday (19), in the 12th round of the Brasileirão. The match between the Rio and Bahia clubs will be played at the Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match between Flamengo and Bahia through YouTube, the website and social media. However, Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Brasileirão match.
