Flamengo meets Estudiantes (ARG) again this Thursday (25), in a match valid for the second leg of the Libertadores quarterfinals. For the match, Filipe Luís hinted at the lineup of the red-black team with Jorginho among the starters.
Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Ayton Lucas; Jorginho, Saúl and Arrascaeta; Plata, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
For the decisive match against Estudiantes, Flamengo has the return of Jorginho. It's worth remembering that the player hasn't played since the 8-0 victory against Vitória on August 25, due to a muscle edema in his thigh. Now recovered, the midfielder is available again.
In summary, to face Estudiantes, Filipe Luís has two confirmed absences. Thus, Erick Pulgar, who is still recovering from foot surgery, and Michael, with pain in his left ankle, are not available for Flamengo.
Yes! Flamengo has a player at risk with two yellow cards. It is Varela. Therefore, if the defender receives a third yellow card in this Thursday's (25) match, he will miss the next game if the team advances to the Libertadores semifinals.
The match between Flamengo and Estudiantes is broadcast by ESPN (subscription channel) and Disney+ (streaming). Coluna do Fla TV (YouTube), on the other hand, covers the pre and post-match details, including the press conference with coach Filipe Luís.
It's important to remember that the match is for a spot in the Libertadores 2025 semifinals. Additionally, Flamengo goes to Argentina with an advantage to try to qualify for the tournament, as they won the first leg 2-1 at Maracanã.
Finally, Flamengo and Estudiantes face off starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Thursday (25), at the Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium, Argentina. The match is for a spot in the Libertadores 2025 semifinals.
