Filipe Luís names Flamengo XI for Vasco clash in training | OneFootball

Flamengo conducts training on Saturday morning (20), at CT Ninho do Urubu

Flamengo continues preparations for one of the most important games of the season so far. On Sunday (21), the Most Beloved faces Vasco, for the 24th round of the Brasileirão. Thus, this Saturday (20), Filipe Luís will define the starting team for the Carioca classic.

According to the schedule released by Flamengo, Filipe Luís leads the last activity of Flamengo at 09:30 (Brasília time) this Saturday (20), at CT Ninho do Urubu. After the trainings, the coach defines the starting team that will face Vasco.

What is Flamengo's probable lineup?

Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas; Allan, De La Cruz (Saúl) and Arrascaeta; Plata, Samuel Lino and Pedro.

Despite the decisive game on Thursday (25) against Estudiantes (ARG), Flamengo should face Vasco with 'full strength'. It is worth mentioning that Filipe Luís has only one confirmed absence for the game, since Erick Pulgar continues his recovery after fracturing his left foot.

Does Flamengo have doubts for the classic?

On the other hand, Flamengo has two doubts for this Sunday's (21) game: Jorginho and Alex Sandro. The players missed the team in the 2-1 victory over Estudiantes, for the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Libertadores, last Thursday (18).

Alex Sandro was recovering from a muscle injury in his left calf, while Jorginho had pains in the posterior muscle of his right thigh. Despite this, the players trained on the field this Friday (19) and, therefore, may be available to Filipe Luís.

How are Flamengo and Vasco in the Brasileirão?

Flamengo, at this moment, remains in the isolated lead of the Brazilian Championship, with 50 points won. In the meantime, Filipe Luís's team has 15 wins, five draws, and two losses. On the other hand, Vasco continues to fight against relegation and appears in 15th position, with 23.

When do Flamengo and Vasco face each other?

The 'Clássico dos Milhões' takes place at 17:30 (Brasília time) this Sunday (21), at Maracanã, for the 24th round of the Brazilian Championship. Thus, as usual, the Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match, through YouTube, the website and social networks.
