Fluminense face a tough April with a gruelling run of matches | OneFootball

Nine matches in just 30 days. That is the scenario awaiting Fluminense throughout April. The match marathon has been worrying head coach Luis Zubeldía and the rest of the coaching staff. The squad has been making the most of the period without matches to rest and train.

Match marathon

The marathon begins next Wednesday, when Fluminense host Corinthians at the Maracanã in the Brazilian Championship. Three days later, the Tricolor das Laranjeiras travel to Paraná to face Coritiba.

“The Brazilian Championship is important, just like the Copa Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil. We will try to compete on all fronts,” Zubeldía said.

Next Tuesday, Flu will make a stop in Venezuela to open their Copa Libertadores campaign against Deportivo La Guaira. Shortly after, on the 12th, they will face Flamengo in a Brasileirão derby. Three days later, the team will play at home in the Libertadores against Argentina’s Independiente Rivadavia.

On April 19, Fluminense face Santos at Vila Belmiro and then begin their Copa do Brasil campaign in Paraná against Operário. After that, they take on Chapecoense at the Maracanã in the Brasileirão on the 26th. The month ends on the 30th, at the altitude of La Paz, against Bolívar, wrapping up the first half of the Libertadores group stage.
