After securing a 1-1 draw against Athletico-PR in the 16th round of the Brasileirão, the Flamengo squad will have no time to rest. The group returns to CT Ninho do Urubu as early as this Monday (18) to begin preparations with Estudiantes (ARG) in mind. As a result, Leonardo Jardim will have only two days to get the team ready for the next challenge of the season.
The coaching staff’s plan includes on-field activities both this Monday (18) and Tuesday (19). In fact, the final training session, scheduled for the afternoon, will be the key moment when Leonardo Jardim defines the starting lineup for the clash.
The decisive match is set for this Wednesday (20). In addition, as usual on matchdays, the coach will lead only a light activation session with the Rubro-Negro squad at 11 a.m. (Brasília time), just a few hours before kickoff.
Flamengo x Estudiantes takes place on Wednesday (20), in a match valid for the fifth round of the Libertadores group stage, with the ball rolling from 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time). Mengão head into the match looking to pull even further clear in Group A.
If Mengão are on the field, Coluna do Fla keeps Rubro-Negro fans informed about every detail of the matches through the website and social media. In addition, Globo (free-to-air TV), GE TV (YouTube), and Paramount+ (streaming) will broadcast Flamengo x Estudiantes.
