How to watch Flamengo v Lausanne Sport in Portugal pre-season | OneFootball

Flamengo is playing a series of matches in Portugal during the World Cup

Estádio Algarve, in Portugal, hosts the clash between Flamengo and Lausanne Sport (SUI) this Wednesday (08). The match, valid for the Algarve Trophy, represents Rubro-Negro’s second challenge during the mid-season training period held during the calendar break for the 2026 World Cup.

The match will be broadcast live on Band, on free-to-air TV. In addition, SporTV (cable TV), Premiere (pay-per-view), and Bandplay (streaming) will also show the game.

WHAT ABOUT COLUNA DO FLA?

As usual, Coluna do Fla will broadcast Lausanne Sport vs Flamengo live on YouTube. The most Rubro-Negro team on the internet follows every step of Mengão every day, bringing news, interviews, behind-the-scenes coverage, and everything involving the Most Beloved.

In addition to showing the match, Coluna do Fla is on the ground in Portugal with live coverage. Simon Lédo and Rock Hudson are sending exclusive details of the training period directly from Lagos, where the squad is using the facilities of the Cascade Wellness Resort.

HOW IS FLAMENGO COMING IN?

Flamengo opened the European tour with a 2-2 draw against River Plate (ARG), in a match featuring goals from Samuel Lino and Bruno Henrique. Now, the group is looking to fine-tune formations and test tactical alternatives before wrapping up the trip to Europe.

It is worth noting that Flamengo faces this challenge with nine absences due to call-ups for the World Cup. Even so, the squad allows Leonardo Jardim to observe youth academy players and evaluate backups during the preparation period. The main goal is to give the players match rhythm for the return of the Brasileirão and the continuation of the Copa Libertadores.

WHAT ABOUT LAUSANNE SPORT?

On the other side, Lausanne-Sport finished the 2025/2026 season with ups and downs, alternating strong moments in the Conference League with difficulties in the Super League. That is because the Swiss team underwent changes in the coaching staff in April and is currently working under Markus Neumayr and Migjen Basha.

WILL FLAMENGO PLAY ANOTHER FRIENDLY IN PORTUGAL?

After this Wednesday’s (08) commitment against Lausanne Sport, the Rubro-Negro squad will close out its stay in Portugal with one last test. Thus, the final match of this series will take place on July 11, against Benfica (POR).

This match marks the end of the training period on European soil. After returning to Brazil, Flamengo will still play one more friendly, against Olimpia (PAR), on July 17, in Brasília.

Finally, the return to official matches will take place on July 22, against Chapecoense, at Arena Condá, in the Brazilian Championship. Until then, the coaching staff will make the most of every minute of this training period to consolidate the playing model and prepare the group for the crucial challenges of the second half of the season.
