Flamengo take the field this Sunday (17) to face Athletico-PR in the 16th round of the Brazilian Championship. With an eye on the match at Arena da Baixada in Curitiba, Mengão’s delegation travels to the capital of Paraná on Saturday afternoon (16).
According to the schedule released by the club, before traveling, the Flamengo squad will wrap up preparations for the match against Athletico-PR at CT Ninho do Urubu. During the sessions, coach Leonardo Jardim will define the starting lineup for the game.
Right afterward, at 8:00 p.m. (Brasília time), the Rubro-Negro delegation will depart for Curitiba. Arrival in the capital of Paraná is scheduled for 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time).
In total, Leonardo Jardim is leading two days of activities focused on the clash against Athletico-PR. Thus, after being eliminated from the Copa do Brasil on Thursday (14), the team trained on Friday (15) and will finish preparations this Saturday (16).
Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) this Sunday (17) at Arena da Baixada for the match between Flamengo and Athletico-PR in the 16th round of the Brasileirão.
The clash carries even more weight. That is because, on one side, Mengão are trying to move closer to the top of the table. Meanwhile, the team from Paraná faces a crucial match in the battle to break into the G-4.
Even away from home, the Rubro-Negro fans are expected to make their presence felt at Arena da Baixada to support Flamengo.
