Finally, Jorge Carrascal is suspended after being sent off against Fluminense.
The Flamengo vs. Bahia match kicks off at 7:30 p.m. Brasília time this Sunday (19), valid for the 12th round of the Brasileirão. The clash will take place at the Maracanã, with live coverage on Premiere via pay-per-view.
