The U-20 team of Flamengo will try for their first victory in the Campeonato Carioca on Saturday (17), against Volta Redonda, at the Raulino de Oliveira Stadium. The youth team coach, Bruno Pivetti, has finalized the squad list and will have to make two changes.
Wallace Yan, who has been transferred to Red Bull Bragantino, will no longer play for Flamengo and bid farewell on Wednesday (14), against Bangu. Meanwhile, Johnny suffered a serious shoulder injury and will miss the red-black team for the second round of the Campeonato Carioca.

In the starting lineup, the tendency is for right-back Gusttavo to be improvised on the left, filling Johnny's spot. In attack, in place of Wallace Yan, Camargo is the favorite to start the match. Thus, Flamengo should take the field with: Léo Nannetti, Daniel Sales, Iago, João Victor, and Gusttavo; Lucas Vieira, Pablo Lucio, and Guilherme; Caio Joshua, Douglas Telles, and Camargo.
After drawing with Portuguesa in a match brought forward from the fifth round and losing to Bangu in the first round, Flamengo will seek their first victory in what should be the U-20 team's farewell to the competition. This is because the main squad is expected to return next midweek.
In summary, with Flamengo under pressure, the ball will roll from 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) this Saturday (17). Thus, SporTV, on cable, and Premiere, via pay-per-view, will broadcast the match. However, Coluna do Fla will provide the best and most red-black coverage.
