Flamengo returns to the pitch this Saturday (14th) to face Botafogo in the sixth round of the Brasileirão. The match will take place at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) at Estádio Nilton Santos. With that in mind, Coluna do Fla brings fans the main information about both teams.
Starting with Flamengo. With an eye on the upcoming clash, coach Leonardo Jardim had Thursday (12th) and Friday (13th) to conduct training sessions with the players. It’s important to note that on the morning of this Saturday (14th), the players will have a warm-up session at the Ninho do Urubu training ground before the ball rolls for the derby.
For the match against Botafogo, Flamengo will have most of its players available. The only absences are Saúl Ñíguez (surgery on his left heel), Bruno Henrique (pubalgia), and De La Cruz (rested due to the synthetic turf).
As for the players at risk of suspension, the only one from Flamengo on this list is Léo Pereira. Therefore, if he receives a yellow card against Botafogo, the number 4 will miss the match against Remo on Thursday (19th) at Maracanã.
Botafogo comes into the derby under a lot of pressure, having been eliminated in the pre-Libertadores after a defeat to Barcelona-EQU. For this match, coach Martin Anselmi will not have Chris Ramos, Kaio Pantaleão, Marçal, and Santi Rodríguez available, as they are injured. Finally, Allan and the team’s coach are both at risk of suspension.
