Fluminense continues its preparations for the classic match against Vasco, for the 29th round of the Brazilian Championship. The match will take place this Monday, at 7:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã.
Coach Luís Zubeldía has not yet decided on the lineup for the match. This is because he is waiting for midfielder Lucho Acosta to recover.
The player missed the game against Juventude due to muscle pain. The tendency is for him to return against the Cruzmaltinos.
Another change compared to the team that started the match against the Gaúchos is in the attack. John Kennedy may get another chance to start in Cano's place.
Zubeldía will decide Fluminense's lineup after Sunday's training session at CT Carlos Castilho.
With 41 points in 27 games, the Tricolor from Rio occupies seventh place in the Brazilian Championship.
