Filipe Luís should start Luiz Araújo in place of Arrascaeta, who is suspended

Flamengo takes the field this Wednesday (13th), when they face Internacional in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores. For the match at Maracanã, Filipe Luís has outlined the starting lineup with Luiz Araújo as an option to replace Arrascaeta, who is suspended.

In summary, for the match against Internacional, Flamengo will have some ‘new features’. That’s because Filipe Luís will have Jorginho returning to the starting lineup. The player served a suspension in the 19th round of the Brasileirão, against Mirassol. On the other hand, as mentioned above, Arrascaeta is suspended for the Libertadores match due to accumulation of yellow cards.

Who are Flamengo’s absences?

In addition to Arrascaeta, who is suspended, Flamengo has other confirmed absences for the match against Internacional. Thus, Erick Pulgar (right foot surgery), De La Cruz (left knee), and Danilo (right thigh) complete the list of absences for the red and black team.

Are there more details about the match and broadcast?

It’s important to note that Flamengo and Internacional will face off starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (13th). The match will take place at Maracanã, for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores. Finally, the clash will be broadcast live on Rede Globo, on free-to-air TV, as well as on Disney+, via streaming.

Another point worth highlighting is that Flamengo and Internacional already have their rematch scheduled. Thus, the second leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores between the teams will take place next Wednesday (20th), at Estádio Beira-Rio, in Porto Alegre.
