Flamengo, holding a 3-0 first-leg lead, have rotated for the second leg of the semi-final against Madureira at the Maracanã on Monday, kick-off 21:00 Brasília time.
According to Coluna Do Fla, Filipe Luís named an alternative XI. The starting XI is Andrew, Emerson Royal, Léo Ortiz, Vitão, Alex Sandro, Evertton Araújo, De La Cruz, Lucas Paquetá, Everton Cebolinha, Jorge Carrascal and Pedro.
The bench comprises Rossi, Daniel Sales, Danilo, Varela, Daniel Silva, Ayrton Lucas, Samuel Lino, Luiz Felipe, Luiz Araújo, Gonzalo Plata, Douglas Telles and Wallace Yan.
With a three-goal cushion, five players were rested and not named in the squad, Léo Pereira, Erick Pulgar, Jorginho, Bruno Henrique and Arrascaeta. Apart from the forward, who has pain in the pubis, the others trained as usual on Monday at Ninho do Urubu. Saúl remains in recovery from Achilles tendon surgery.
Flamengo can afford to lose by two and still reach the final. If Madureira win by three, the tie goes to penalties. Fluminense are already through after knocking out Vasco with a 1-1 draw in the return following a 1-0 first-leg win.
SporTV and Premiere carry the match on pay TV and streaming respectively.
