Flamengo and Ceará face off this Wednesday (03), with the title on the line for Mengão

The ninth championship of the Brasileirão is at stake for Flamengo! This Wednesday (03), the Most Beloved of Brazil takes on Ceará, which could secure an early title for the current Libertadores champion. Despite the fatigue after the final in Lima, coach Filipe Luís repeated the team that defeated Palmeiras.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO'S LINEUP FOR THE MATCH AGAINST CEARÁ?

Starters: Agustín Rossi, Guillermo Varela, Danilo, Léo Pereira, and Alex Sandro; Erick Pulgar, Jorginho, and Arrascaeta; Samuel Lino, Carrascal, and Bruno Henrique.

Substitutes: Matheus Cunha, Emerson Royal, Léo Ortiz, Ayrton Lucas, Evertton Araújo, De La Cruz, Saúl, Luiz Araújo, Michael, Wallace Yan, Everton Cebolinha, Gonzalo Plata.

Flamengo needs to 'go all out' for the game, as in the next round, the opponent will be Mirassol, who hasn't lost at home. Thus, Filipe Luís has fielded his best to finish the Brasileirão this Wednesday (03).

The absences are Pedro, recovering from a muscle injury, and Matias Viña was not listed, by decision of Filipe Luís's technical staff.

WHAT DOES FLAMENGO NEED TO BE CHAMPION TODAY?

For Flamengo to be champion, the equation is simple: beat Ceará. If the victory doesn't happen, there is still a chance. For that, Palmeiras must not overcome Atlético-MG, at Arena MRV, also at 9:30 PM (Brasília time). In other words, if Abel Ferreira's team draws or loses, Mengão lifts the trophy, regardless of the result at Maracanã.

WHERE TO WATCH FLAMENGO VS CEARÁ?

The match that could give Flamengo the ninth Brazilian championship will be broadcast by Globo to most of Brazil, as well as by GETV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay per view). However, the best and most Flamengo-focused coverage is from Coluna do Fla, on the website and social media.
