Flamengo is focused on the match against Racing (ARG) in Argentina, valid for the Copa Libertadores semifinal. On the other hand, the bottom-placed Sport is preparing for the clash against Mengão on Saturday (01) at Maracanã. As a result, the team from Recife has one player suspended and two key players doubtful for the match.
Matheusinho is suspended due to a red card in the game against Mirassol at Ilha do Retiro. The forward was a starter but received two yellow cards and left the match early, making him unavailable for the next round.
Additionally, Sport is trying to recover two players as quickly as possible: Rivera and Lucas Lima. The former is undergoing treatment for an injury to the posterior muscle of his left thigh. Meanwhile, the attacking midfielder is dealing with an edema in the adductor muscle of his right thigh.
Thus, Sport faces challenges in assembling the team, as there are three important players involved. Matheusinho has lost some ground but has been playing decisive matches. On the other hand, Lucas Lima and Rivera have been key players since the start of the season at the club.
Flamengo faces Sport on Saturday (01) at 9 PM (Brasília time) at Maracanã, valid for the 31st round of the Brazilian Championship. Thus, Coluna do Fla brings all the information directly from the stadium.
However, before thinking about Sport, Flamengo is focused on facing Racing this Wednesday (29) at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) at Estadio Presidente Perón, valid for the Copa Libertadores. Coluna do Fla is present in Avellaneda and brings the most Flamengo-focused coverage on the internet.
