Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (19) to face Palmeiras in the 29th round of the Brasileirão. In search of another victory in the national championship, Filipe Luís has defined the squad list for Mengão, which includes the return of Saúl.
Coach Filipe Luís has one return for Sunday's match (19): Saúl. The midfielder showed improvement after experiencing pain in his left ankle and is available for Flamengo for the upcoming season commitments.
It is worth noting that Saúl has not yet fully recovered from the pain in his left ankle. However, knowing the importance of the match against Palmeiras, the Spanish midfielder asked coach Filipe Luís to be included in the squad.
Flamengo has one confirmed absence to face Palmeiras. It is Everton Cebolinha, who suffered a hip injury in the 3-0 victory over Botafogo last Thursday (15). Thus, the forward is under the care of the Medical Department.
Additionally, De La Cruz and Viña were also left out of the squad list for Flamengo. According to the report from Coluna do Fla, the players did not present any physical problems and were not called up due to a technical decision by Filipe Luís.
At this moment, Flamengo is in second place in the Brasileirão with 58 points. Meanwhile, Filipe Luís's team has 17 wins, seven draws, and three losses. Additionally, Palmeiras is leading the championship, with 61 points.
With Saúl available, Flamengo will face Palmeiras this Sunday (19). Thus, the decisive match will take place at 4 PM (Brasília time) at Maracanã, for the 29th round of the Brazilian Championship.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will provide the best coverage on the internet through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (open channel), GE TV (YouTube), and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Flamengo vs Palmeiras match.
