Internacional and Flamengo face off this Wednesday (29) in the Brasileirão

Flamengo and Internacional announced, on Wednesday night (29), their lineups for the clash at Beira-Rio in Porto Alegre, starting at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time). On the Rubro-Negro side, Leonardo Jardim kept many of the players from the previous match against São Paulo for the 21st round of the Brasileirão.

Head coach: Paulo Pezzolano.

What does Flamengo have on the bench?

Leonardo Jardim has Léo Ortiz available, but preferred to keep Vitão in the starting lineup alongside Léo Pereira. After all, the center back has not played for about two months. So, the defender is lacking match fitness.

Pezzolano, meanwhile, had to call on Bruno Rodrigues to replace Victor Gabriel, who is suspended until Gabriel Pec returns to training. That is because the Internacional player caused a leg fracture to the Cruzeiro athlete in the 19th round of the Brasileirão.

Who is out of the match?

On the Rubro-Negro side, Gonzalo Plata has tendinitis in his right knee, Luiz Araújo is recovering from trauma to his left leg, and Lucas Paquetá is in transition. For Internacional, Victor Gabriel is suspended, Kayky underwent surgery on his right knee, João Victor has a muscle issue, while Sergio Rochet, Thiago Maia, and Benjamin are working on their fitness.

What is the teams’ situation in the Brasileirão?

Flamengo sits in second place with 34 points, six behind leaders Palmeiras. Internacional, meanwhile, is the first team outside the relegation zone, with the same number of points as Vasco, who are 17th in the table.
