In the year 2023, Flamengo was responsible for moving more than half of football's R$3.9 billion in economic impact in Rio de Janeiro. The study was carried out by Municipal Secretariat for Urban and Economic Development (SMDUE), a body of the city's City Hall. According to the newspaper O Globo, new studies from the same department show optimistic numbers when designing the red-black stadium.
In theory, in order to reach these numbers, the City of Rio de Janeiro noticed the behavior of Rio fans. In the study “ Economy of Carioca Football”, it was calculated that each match of Rio clubs generated R$ 14.6 million in 2023.

Flamengo alone reached a total of R$2.0 billion last season. Effects on the region's economy, especially on sales in the beverage and food sector, are taken into consideration.
How Flamengo should generate R$ 5 billion in 10 years
Spending by fans who go to the stadium – R $ 140.4 million
Fans who prefer to watch games in bars and restaurants – 280.9 million
Public that goes to bars and restaurants in Rio when the games are “away from home” – 411.7 million
Club revenue (R$ 1.511 billion, 10% more than 2023 revenue), reaching R$ 2.3 billion
In total, the value would already reach R$329.1 million above the 2023 movement. In 10 years, this amount of R$ 329.1 million would already reach R$ 3.3 billion
More the R$ 2 billion investment planned by the club for the construction of the stadium: R$ 5.3 billion

Estudiantes is already in Rio de Janeiro for the first leg of the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals against Flamengo , scheduled for Thursday (18), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The Argentine team trained at Fluminense's facilities , preparing for the decisive duel.
Coach Eduardo Domínguez tested a more conservative formation, including an extra defensive midfielder in midfield, as a strategy to contain Flamengo's attacks. According to Radio Província 1270 in La Plata, the change could result in only one striker on the field , demonstrating a more solid defensive posture.
Estudiantes ' likely lineup for the clash includes: Muslera; Gómez, Nuñez, Rodríguez, Arzamendia; Ascacibar, Piovi, Amondarain, Medina, Tiago Palacios; Carrillo.
It's not yet clear whether Piovi will play as an extra midfielder or be replaced by Castro . Amondarain, despite being an attacking midfielder, could drop back and act as a third midfielder, depending on Domínguez's strategy in recent training sessions.
With the prospect of a more closed Argentine team, Flamengo, under the command of Filipe Luís, will have to work hard to break down Estudiantes' defense and seek a positive result in the first leg of the Libertadores quarterfinals.

Up front, Bruno Henrique is recovered and available to play, expanding coach Filipe Luís's offensive options. Plata and Luiz Araújo are also options at wing. Léo Ortiz returns to the defensive system after missing the match against Juventude.
A possible Flamengo lineup for Thursday has: Rossi; Emerson Royal (or Varela), Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas (or Viña); Allan (or De La Cruz), Saúl and Arrascaeta; Plata, Pedro (or Bruno Henrique) and Samuel Lino.
According to information gathered, the club's coaching staff is likely to opt for midfielder Jorginho, who is recovering from a muscle edema. Although he is fit to play, the club does not want to risk losing him for an extended period.
Without Jorginho, coach Filipe Luís is evaluating the best alternatives for the position. De La Cruz and Saúl are the main candidates to form a partnership with Saúl in midfield . The coach will lead the final training session before the match on Wednesday (17) to determine his replacement.
Another confirmed absence is left-back Alex Sandro, who is nursing a calf injury and will be unfit to play. Ayrton Lucas and Matías Viña are competing for the starting spot on the left wing.
