Flamengo returns to the field this Wednesday (11) to face Cruzeiro, for the fifth round of the Brasileirão. Opponent of Mengão, the team from Minas Gerais has six absences for the match at Maracanã. In addition, Tite 'raises the alert' for the situation of a player at risk of suspension.
Tite will not be able to count on six players to face Flamengo. While William serves a suspension, Bruno Rodrigues, Kaio Jorge, Lucas Romero, Luís Sinisterra, and Marquinhos are under the care of Cruzeiro's Medical Department.
Yes! Cruzeiro is attentive to the situation of a player this Wednesday (11). This is because Matheus Pereira is at risk with two yellow cards. Therefore, if he is penalized against Flamengo, the number 10 will have to miss the Minas Gerais team in the next round of the Brasileirão, against Vasco.
On the other hand, Flamengo has two absences to face Cruzeiro. Saúl Ñíguez continues treatment after surgery on his left heel, while Bruno Henrique is recovering from pubalgia.
Flamengo and Cruzeiro face off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (11). The interstate classic takes place at Maracanã, in a match valid for the fifth round of the Brazilian Championship.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the match between Flamengo and Cruzeiro, through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (open TV), GE TV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Brasileirão match.
