🗞️ Team News: Flamengo

There’s just the lone fitness concern for the Flamengo boss Filipe Luís to be concerned with due to a largely intact group. Matías Viña (Knee injury) is out of contention.

ℹ️ Team News: Juventude

Juventude manager Fábio Matias has to currently contend with reduced team options. Gilberto (Hamstring injury), Daniel Giraldo (Head injury), Rodrigo Sam (Pubic bone bruise), Caíque Gonçalves (Cruciate ligament injury), Gabriel Taliari (ankle sprain), Daniel Peixoto (Cruciate ligament injury) and Cipriano (Hamstring injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

⚡ Prediction

It seems to us that Juventude won’t find it easy at all to put one past a Flamengo side who will most probably get a big win and also probable clean sheet.

Our tip is for a 3-0 margin for Flamengo when the full-time whistle blows.
