This Tuesday, Fluminense concluded preparations for the match against Palmeiras, which takes place this Wednesday, starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Arena Crefisa Barueri, in Barueri (SP).
For this game, coach Zubeldía will not be able to count on Nonato. The midfielder suffered a grade 1 injury to the right hamstring in the first semifinal against Vasco and is out. Additionally, Canobbio (suspended) is also out of the match.
Thus, the probable lineup for Flu should be Fábio, Samuel Xavier, Freytes, Jemmes, and Renê; Bernal, Martinelli, and Lucho Acosta; Savarino (Soteldo), Serna, and John Kennedy.
Besides this match, Flu will have a decisive game next Sunday, at Maracanã, against Vasco, for the semifinal of the Campeonato Carioca. The Tricolor das Laranjeiras won the first game 1-0.
