Which call-ups are available for Flamengo v Chapecoense? | OneFootball

So far, Varela is expected to be the only called-up player available for Flamengo vs. Chapecoense

Now it’s for real! This Wednesday (22), Flamengo face Chapecoense in the 19th round of the Brazilian Championship. For the match, will Leonardo Jardim be able to count on the players who were called up for the World Cup?

At the moment, the only confirmed presence for Flamengo vs. Chapecoense is Guillermo Varela. That’s because the Uruguayan was already available for the friendly against Olimpia (PAR) last Friday (17). Besides him, De La Cruz and Gonzalo Plata could travel with the squad to Chapecó.

That’s because both rejoined the team along with Varela. While De La Cruz has been training on the pitch, the Ecuadorian forward is doing load-management work. The idea is for both to regain their physical levels after the vacation break.

What about the other players?

So far, Léo Pereira, Danilo, and Alex Sandro, who rejoined on Thursday (16), are still not expected to be available against Chapecoense. Finally, Arrascaeta and Lucas Paquetá are recovering from injuries and are confirmed absences for this Wednesday’s match (22).

The number 10 is in the transition phase of physical preparation after recovering from a right calf injury. Meanwhile, the midfielder remains in Flamengo’s medical department treating the left thigh injury he suffered in the match against Japan at the World Cup.

Does Fla have other absences?

It’s important to mention that, besides the called-up players who are still not ready to return to action, Flamengo have two other absences. In this way, Léo Ortiz, who has been recovering from a muscle injury since May, is doing on-pitch work with the physiotherapy and fitness staff.

In addition, Luiz Araújo suffered a left knee injury in the friendly against Olimpia on Friday (17). Last Saturday (18), the player underwent imaging tests, which identified the injury that ruled the number 7 out of the match against Chapecoense.

What are the details of Flamengo vs. Chapecoense?

It’s worth noting that Flamengo return to official action this Wednesday (22), when they take on Chapecoense. The match, valid for the 19th round of the Brazilian Championship, kicks off at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Arena Condá.

Finally, Flamengo vs. Chapecoense will be broadcast live by Rede Globo on free-to-air TV. In addition, Premiere will also show the match via pay-per-view. On the other hand, Coluna do Fla will cover every detail about the Rubro-Negro on its website, social media, and YouTube channel.
