Flamengo faces Racing (ARG) in the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores on October 22 and 29. Therefore, the Argentine team is expected to have two important reinforcements: Luciano Vietto and Matías Zaracho.
Luciano Vietto was experiencing discomfort in his right hamstring and needed treatment. On the other hand, Matías Zaracho had an injury on the scar of a previous contusion. As a result, both were not training with the group.
Racing takes the field this Saturday (11), against Banfield (ARG), in the Argentine Championship. However, the team is expected to use some reserves, as the main focus is the two matches against Flamengo in the Copa Libertadores.
Thus, Flamengo and Racing will face off later this October. On the 22nd, the red-black team hosts the Argentines at Maracanã at 9:30 PM (Brasília time). A week later, the match will be played in Avellaneda.
Before thinking about Racing, Flamengo has a commitment in the Brazilian Championship. The Most Beloved faces Botafogo on October 15, at 7:30 PM (Brasília time), at the Nilton Santos Stadium, in a match valid for the 28th round.
