Filipe Luís will have a very important piece for the duel: Arrascaeta. Spared in the first leg against Atlético-MG, at Maracanã, the Uruguayan is available for the return match. It is worth noting that the number 10 was in doubt for the match in Belo Horizonte, due to discomfort in the back of his thigh. However, exams ruled out injury.

Also, forward Everton Cebolinha is also back on the list of related players. The number 11 was recovering from a muscle tendinitis, but participated normally in training on Monday (04), at CT Ninho do Urubu.

DOES FLAMENGO HAVE ABSENCES?

The red and black team deals with six important absences for the match. Danilo is treating a muscle injury in his thigh and is recovering. At the same time, Erick Pulgar is still out after undergoing surgery on his right foot, while Michael has pain in his left ankle. Finally, De la Cruz, Luiz Araújo and Bruno Henrique were spared due to physical load control.
