Leonardo Jardim names Flamengo v Corinthians probable line-up | OneFootball

Flamengo travels this Saturday (21) to São Paulo, where they face Corinthians on Sunday (22)

Before facing Corinthians on Sunday (22) for the eighth round of the Brasileirão, coach Leonardo Jardim will lead the last training session at Ninho do Urubu this Saturday (21). During the session, the Portuguese coach will decide the starting lineup that will take the field at Neo Química Arena.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO'S PROBABLE LINEUP?

Agustín Rossi, Guillermo Varela, Léo Ortiz, Vitão (Danilo) and Alex Sandro (Ayrton Lucas); Jorginho, Lucas Paquetá (Evertton Araújo) and Arrascaeta; Samuel Lino, Carrascal (Luiz Araújo) and Pedro.

Leonardo Jardim will not be able to count on two important players. This is because Léo Pereira and Erick Pulgar received their third yellow card against Remo and are serving an automatic suspension. In defense, Danilo and Vitão are competing for the spot. In midfield, Lucas Paquetá and Evertton Araújo are the favorites, with De La Cruz as an outsider.

This Saturday's (21) training will also determine if Bruno Henrique will be able to travel. The forward has not played since February 26, against Lanús (ARG), due to pubic pain. The tendency is that the Flamengo idol will remain out and return only after the FIFA break.

It is important to highlight that Flamengo will have a muscle activation session on Sunday (22) at the hotel where they will be staying in São Paulo. This pre-game routine has become common since Leonardo Jardim took over the team.

WHEN IS FLAMENGO VS CORINTHIANS?

The match between Corinthians and Flamengo kicks off at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) at Neo Química Arena in São Paulo. Whenever Mengão is on the field, there is full coverage by Coluna do Fla, directly from the stadium. For the Rubro-Negro, it is a step towards the leadership. Meanwhile, the São Paulo team is trying to escape the crisis.

In addition to Coluna, Record will broadcast the match on open TV. Finally, Premiere, via pay-per-view, will show the clash of Brazil's two largest fan bases. Flamengo is in fourth place with 13 points, with one game less than leaders Palmeiras and São Paulo, who have 16. Corinthians is ninth with nine points.
