Lanús v Fluminense: likely line-ups and key Sul-Americana info | OneFootball

Fluminense faces Lanús this Tuesday (16), at the Estadio Ciudad de Lanús (La Fortaleza), at 9:30 PM (Brasília time). The match is valid for the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals and will be officially broadcast by SBT and the streaming platform Paramount+.

If the team has been inconsistent in the Brazilian Championship, as seen in the 1-0 home defeat to Corinthians last weekend, the Tricolor is looking to activate its best “Flu de Copas” mode to keep achieving its goals in knockout competitions.

Lanús is also experiencing a period of instability. The team was recently eliminated from the Copa Argentina by Argentinos Juniors. On the other hand, they are fighting at the top of the national championship table, occupying fourth place in Group B.

For the match, coach Renato Gaúcho still cannot count on Samuel Xavier, who is recovering from an injury. The immediate substitute for the right-back position is Guga. The rest of the starting lineup should be made up of the same players who faced Bahia in the second leg of the Copa do Brasil last Wednesday (10).

Probable lineup: Fábio; Guga, Thiago Silva, Freytes, Renê; Hércules, Martinelli, Nonato; Serna, Canobbio, and Everaldo.

The trio officiating the match will be exclusively Uruguayan. The main referee Gustavo Tejera will be assisted by Carlos Barreiro and Agustin Berisso. VAR will be under the command of Jonathan Fuentes, also from Uruguay.
