Flamengo returns to the field this Saturday (25th), when they face Fortaleza at Arena Castelão. Before the ball rolls for the Campeonato Brasileiro, Coluna do Fla brings you all the information about the match, such as probable lineups, where to watch, refereeing, and much more.
Before facing Fortaleza, Flamengo won their last three matches. First, the red-black team defeated Botafogo. Next, they overcame Palmeiras. Finally, they took the lead in the semifinals of the Libertadores by beating Racing (ARG).
On the other hand, Fortaleza is in a delicate situation in the Campeonato Brasileiro. That’s because the Ceará team has only 24 points and occupies the second-to-last place in the competition. In their two most recent matches, they lost to Vasco and Cruzeiro.
Flamengo and Fortaleza will be broadcast on SporTV, on cable TV, and Premiere, via pay-per-view. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will show all the details of the match with unmissable coverage.
For the match against Fortaleza, Flamengo has a long list of absences. Erick Pulgar and Jorge Carrascal are suspended due to accumulation of yellow cards. De La Cruz is suffering from a viral infection.
In addition, Pedro suffered a forearm fracture, while Everton Cebolinha had a hip injury. Finally, Léo Ortiz has a strain in his right ankle, and Alex Sandro was rested for the match at Arena Castelão.
On the other hand, the squad needs to be alert to yellow cards. That’s because Allan, Everton Araújo, Jorginho, Arrascaeta, Luiz Araújo, and Bruno Henrique are one yellow card away from suspension and could miss the next round.
