For the home game, coach Leonardo Jardim is dealing with three absences: Alex Sandro, Vitão and De La Cruz.

Left back Alex Sandro is recovering from pain in his right calf caused by tendinitis. In addition, center back Vitão is being treated for a muscle injury in his left thigh.

While the medical department works on the recovery of the injured players, the coaching staff is being cautious with De La Cruz. The Uruguayan midfielder has recovered from a thigh problem and took part in training with the group on Tuesday (01), but he will remain off the pitch until he reaches ideal fitness.

NEW SIGNINGS OUT? WHAT ABOUT PLATA?

Plata is still returning from Russia after the turnaround in negotiations with Dynamo (RUS). In addition, the club was unable to register new signings Anthony Valencia and Joaquín Freitas in time for this Wednesday’s (02) match.

DOES FLAMENGO HAVE REINFORCEMENTS?

Suspended for a third yellow card, forward Bruno Henrique was unavailable for Flamengo in the derby against Botafogo, played on August 30, 2026. Now, the player returns as a boost for the red-and-black side for the rest of the season.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO’S LIKELY LINEUP AGAINST MIRASSOL?

Rossi; Royal, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas; Erick Pulgar, Jorginho and Arrascaeta; Carrascal, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
