Flamengo will face Grêmio in the next round of the Brazilian Championship with six confirmed absences. The absence of the players was determined after the request for recall made by the Rio club during the preparatory friendlies was denied by the Uruguay and Chile teams.
The players who will be absent from Flamengo are Varela, Matías Viña, Pulgar, From La Cruz and Arrascaeta. The teams' refusal to release these athletes will leave the Rio team without these key players for the clash against Grêmio, led by Renato Portaluppi.
Grêmio will also have an important absence. Striker Gustavo Nunes, who received his third yellow card in the match against Bragantino, is out of the game against Flamengo. Renato Portaluppi will have to find a replacement to play Nunes' role in the attack.
Before facing Flamengo, Grêmio has two decisive games for the Libertadores. The first of them will be against Huachipato this Tuesday (04). This clash is crucial for Tricolor, as a defeat would mean elimination from the group stage of the tournament.
Flamengo will now have a rest period and will only return to the pitch next week. The team will face Grêmio on Thursday (13), after the stoppage due to the FIFA date. This break will allow the team to recover energy and continue the search for leadership in the Brasileirão.

On Saturday afternoon (28), Flamengo held its last training session before facing Athletico-PR in the Brasileirão. A clash that could decide the future of coach Tite at Mengão, was attended by all the players considered to be starters, despite the expectation of a mixed team for Sunday (29).
In content published on social media of Flamengo, names like Bruno Henrique and Alex Sandro, who were starters in the Libertadores elimination, last Thursday (26), appear alongside young fledglings, such as Matheus Gonçalves and Evertton, who have been widely used in the “reserve team ” by Tite.
With his destiny becoming more uncertain at Flamengo, Tite may having led his last training session as coach of Rubro-Negro. There are four games without a win, a bad result, or poorly presented football against Athletico-PR, could mean the end of the line for the coach, just under a year after his arrival.
In the semi-finals of Copa do Brasil, where they face Corinthians, and in the G4 of the Brasileirão, Rubro-Negro's objective is clear, to become CdB champion, and remain in the classification zone for the next Libertadores in the points championship.
