Flamengo vs Vasco Match Takes Place This Wednesday (21)

Flamengo faces Vasco this Wednesday (21), in a match valid for the third round of the Campeonato Carioca. The fourth match of the Most Beloved this 2026 season will be broadcast on free-to-air TV.

In summary, the Flamengo vs Vasco game will be broadcast live by Rede Globo on free-to-air TV. It is worth noting that the classic will be narrated by Gustavo Villani, with commentary from Ana Thaís Matos and Paulo Nunes.

Additionally, SporTV (subscription channel), Premiere (pay-per-view), and GETV (YouTube) will also broadcast the professional team's debut this season. Meanwhile, Coluna do Fla TV on YouTube will keep an eye on all the details of the classic between Flamengo and Vasco, directly from Maracanã.

How is Flamengo Doing?

In summary, to face Vasco, Flamengo has changed its plans and will bring forward the return of the professional squad. In the meantime, the Most Beloved has four confirmed absences among the main players. They are: Saúl, De La Cruz, Danilo, and Andrew.

While Saúl is recovering from ankle surgery, De La Cruz and Danilo are undergoing special treatment due to injuries. Finally, goalkeeper Andrew was not registered in time for this Wednesday's (21) match.

It is worth remembering that the professional players returned to Flamengo on January 12, when they began the pre-season. Since then, the main squad has had just over a week of training.

What is Fla's Situation in the Carioca?

Currently, Flamengo's alert in the Carioca is on. This is because, in three matches played so far, the under-20 team has not won any and has only accumulated one point from a 1-1 draw with Portuguesa.

Thus, Flamengo is at the bottom of Group B in the Campeonato Carioca 2026, with just one point. Not surprisingly, President Bap has changed the team's schedule aiming for a recovery in the tournament so that Fla does not have to compete in the 'quadrangular' to avoid relegation in the State Championship.
