Team Status

With the team in a delicate situation in the standings, Flamengo changed its plan and will be represented by the main squad, along with the return of Filipe Luís, but the lineup is yet to be revealed. Andrew was not registered in time for the match against the cross-maltese team. Thus, the goalkeeper will not be able to make his debut in this match.

At Vasco, Fernando Diniz is expected to field his strongest lineup. Only midfielders Mateus Carvalho and Jair, who are in the medical department, and forward Rayan, who is negotiating a transfer to European football, are expected to be absent.
