Boavista and Flamengo are broadcast exclusively on FlaTV direct from Saquarema, which will be live from 2:15 pm this Saturday (21). Go after them, Mengão!

Flamengo will have a very alternative team for the clash against Grêmio, this Sunday (22), for the 27th round of the Brasileirão. Departure will be at 6:30 pm, in Porto Alegre. In addition to the 12 players saved for the clash with Peñarol, Gabigol is also not on the list of players listed for the duel with the team from Rio Grande do Sul, as reported by journalist Mauro Cezar Pereira.

In addition to the players, Rubro- Negro will not take some members of the Technical Committee, such as assistant Matheus Bachi, and club professionals, to the match. They will continue training with the players who will remain in Rio de Janeiro.

With this, the team that coach Tite should start the match with is: Matheus Cunha, Wesley, David Luiz, Cleiton and Ayrton Lucas; Evertton Araújo, Allan and Alcaraz; Matheus Gonçalves, Carlinhos and Lorran.

Despite a certain appeal from the fans, Flamengo is not considering dismissing Tite before the return game of the Libertadores quarter-finals. However, depending on the result in Uruguay, the coach's situation may change.

This Friday (20), in fact, the red-black directors intend to hold a meeting with the coach present, with the objective of evaluating what happened in the first game against Peñarol, at Maracanã. Furthermore, Flamengo's top management also plans to align solutions to reverse the result in Uruguay and achieve classification away from home.

This Sunday, at 4pm, Maracanã will be the stage for another important clash in the Brazilian Championship. Flamengo and Atlético-GO face each other in a match valid for the 20th round, with the two teams at very different moments in the season. Flamengo arrives for the game on the back of a good run of results.

In the last five games, the red-black team from Rio has accumulated three wins, one draw and one defeat. The team scored 10 goals and conceded 7 in that period, demonstrating an efficient attack, but with a certain defensive vulnerability. In recent games, Flamengo beat three opponents, drew once and suffered a single defeat, showing a solid performance in the championship. The Flamenguistas are confident and hope that the team will continue this good phase to move up the table even further.

FLAMENGO ARRIVES WELL TO THE CONFRONTATION

On the other hand, Atlético-GO is going through a very complicated phase. In the last five games, the team from Goiás has not achieved any victory, accumulating four defeats and only one draw. During this period, Atlético-GO scored just 4 goals and conceded 10, reflecting a weak offensive performance and a vulnerable defense. The sequence of negative results puts Atlético-GO in a delicate situation in the championship, with the team urgently needing a turnaround to escape the last positions in the table.

The game at Maracanã promises to be an interesting dispute, com Flamengo seeking to maintain its good phase and the Atlético-GO trying to reverse the negative sequence. For red and black fans, the expectation is to see another victory for the home team, which has the support of its fans at the stadium. On the other hand, Atlético-GO fans hope that the team can surprise and achieve a positive result away from home. The team from Goiás needs to show a much better performance than in previous games to have a chance of leaving Maracanã with points.
