The Round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores-2025 is about to begin for Flamengo and Internacional.
They will face each other starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Wednesday (13) at Maracanã.
This will be the first of three consecutive games between Fla and Inter, as they will also be rivals in the Brasileirão on Sunday (17).
Fla and Inter were in the same group in the 1993 edition.
They drew 0-0 in Porto Alegre and, in Rio, the Rubro-Negro won 3-0.
The team from Rio finished first. Meanwhile, the Colorado finished last.
Fla eliminated Minervén but fell in the quarter-finals to the future champion São Paulo.
In 2019, the duel was in the quarter-finals.
Flamengo won 2-0 at Maracanã and advanced to the semis after a 1-1 draw at Beira-Rio. They would become champions by defeating River in the final.
The Rubro-Negro advanced to the Round of 16 in second place in Group C, with the same 11 points as the leader LDU.
The exit from the Copa do Brasil made the Brasileirão and the Libertadores even more significant.
Filipe Luís is back with Jorginho, who was suspended in the BR.
But Arrascaeta is the one suspended this time.
Luiz Araújo is expected to be the "substitute" for the number 10.
Carrascal starts on the bench.
De La Cruz remains out.
The Colorado led Group F, the "group of death," which also included Atlético Nacional, Bahia, and Nacional.
The atmosphere improved after the victory in the last round of the Brasileirão.
The returns of Aguirre and Vitão are key for the Colorado's defensive system to contain the opponent's momentum.
Highlighted with two goals against Red Bull Bragantino, Ricardo Mathias gets a sequence.
This leaves Enner Valencia and Borré on the bench.
