Flamengo has another important fixture in the 2026 season. On Sunday (10), the Rubro-Negro faces Grêmio away from home in the 15th round of the Brasileirão. With that in mind, head coach Leonardo Jardim will define Mengão’s starting lineup in Saturday’s (09) training session.
Flamengo’s training session is scheduled for 4:00 PM (Brasília time) at Internacional’s training center. In this workout, the expected starting 11 for the Rubro-Negro are: Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas; Evertton Araújo, Jorginho and Carrascal; Plata, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
It is important to note that Flamengo’s squad has been in Porto Alegre since Friday (08), when it arrived from a trip to Colombia. After that, the Rubro-Negro held a training session at Internacional’s training center and, this Saturday (09), will wrap up preparations on Rio Grande do Sul soil.
For the clash with Grêmio, Flamengo will be without Arrascaeta (right clavicle surgery), as well as Erick Pulgar and Lucas Paquetá (injured). Alex Sandro is another absentee, as he will serve a suspension for his third yellow card. Because of that, head coach Leonardo Jardim called up Johnny, a defender from Fla’s under-20 team, to take the place of the No. 26.
The match between Flamengo and Grêmio will take place at 7:30 PM (Brasília time) this Sunday (10) in Porto Alegre, in the 15th round of the Brasileirão. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will provide match coverage on YouTube, as well as on its website and social media. Finally, Premiere will broadcast the match via pay-per-view.
