Red Bull Bragantino will be Flamengo's next opponent. Bragança's team will have serious problems in defense. This is because Léo Realpe was hanging and received his third yellow card in the match against Botafogo this Sunday (12). Therefore, he will not play against Rubro Negro and the alternatives to the defender also have problems.
Defender Eduardo Santos, for example, has a knee injury. Luan Patrick has a muscle injury in his thigh. The latter has been working hard to try to return. There will be 11 days until the clash against Flamengo, however, it will be difficult for the athlete to be able to play until November 23rd. Lucas Cunha is also out.
There is only one option left for coach Pedro Caixinha: Léo Ortiz. The defender is the only one intact and able to enter the field. Eduardo will no longer play in 2023 and the situation is to put Léo in the starting lineup. Therefore, coach Tite should have no difficulty analyzing the defensive formation of the Bragança Paulista team.
Léo Ortiz still doesn't know who he should form a defensive pair with. Coach Pedro Caixinha will have a hard time coming up with a name to put on the field against Flamengo. Rubro Negro, on the other hand, only has David Luiz injured and Allan who is gradually returning. However, Gabigol was sent off in Fla x Flu and is missing for the attack.
SITUATION IN THE BRAZILIAN AND NEXT CONFRONTATIONWith Red Bull Bragantino's draw with Botafogo, Rubro Negro can still dream of a possible title. This is because Flamengo has 57 points, however, they will face the team from Bragança Paulista in the 30th round match and if they win they will enter the fight for the Brazilian Championship again.
It is worth remembering that Palmeiras is the leader with 62 points , however, has one more game. By beating Bragantino next Thursday (23), Flamengo would guarantee overtaking Atlético MG and the Bragança team itself. In addition to Grêmio. The Minas Gerais and Gauchos have already reached 34 games. The Grêmio fans have 59 points and are in third place.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

Check it out:
"The Clube de Regatas do Flamengo informs that the athlete Gabriel Barbosa underwent tests that did not diagnose an injury to the posterior muscle of his right thigh.
