Flamengo enters the field this Saturday (15), at 21h45 (from Brasilia), in Maracanã, for another great classic carioca. In a confrontation valid for the 10th round of the Carioca Championship , Flamengo faces Vasco in a decisive game that can send the conquest of the Guanabara Cup and consolidate the team in the leadership of the competition.
Even though it has used an alternative cast in the first five rounds of the tournament, Mengão can end the weekend very close to the Guanabara Cup title . The achievement is given to the team that ends in the first place of the table after the 11 rounds of the initial phase. However, even winning Vasco on Saturday, the team led by Filipe Luís will only have mathematical confirmation the next day . , 24); ">
Understand the carioca scenario
< p style = "border: 1px Solid RGB (197, 0, 24);"> currently , Flamengo and Volta Redonda add up to 17 points each and can open a maximum of three advantage over each other until the other end of the round. This means that any difference can be reversed in the last match. CRF's great asset is in the goal balance, which is practically unreachable: 13 against 1 of the Towel. Vasco and Volta Redonda lose to Sampaio Corrêa on Sunday, the red-black team will open three points of advantage and further expand its superiority in the goal balance. This scenario would leave the title practically guaranteed. Vasco still has mathematical chances, but would need an unlikely sequence of results to achieve the top of the table. /P>
probable flamengo lineup
Coach Filipe Luís must maintain the base of the team that has played in the most important games of the season, promoting few changes. Thus, the likely lineup of mengão account with: Rossi; Wesley, Ortiz, Leo Pereira and Varela (Ayrton Lucas); Pulgar, from La Cruz and Arrascaeta; PLATE, Bruno Henrique and Michael.
The team will have some absences for the confrontation. Alex Sandro, injured, besides Cleiton and Gerson, suspended, are out of the classic. Ayrton Lucas and Juninho are still doubts for the red-black coach.
Despite experiencing a good collective phase with leadership in the Brasileirão and a place in the quarterfinals of the Libertadores, Mais Querido appears as the most cited club in the survey

According to a survey released by the Transfermarkt platform, Flamengo boasts four of the ten players who have lost the most market value in Brazil. The analysis takes into account each player's individual performance throughout the season and identifies the Rio de Janeiro club as the leader in the rankings.
Among the names mentioned are midfielder Nicolás De la Cruz and striker Pedro, who appear at the top of the list . Both have faced periods of instability and physical problems, determining factors in the drop in projected values.
Signed with high expectations, De la Cruz suffered from injuries and was unable to continue his strong start to his career at the club . His lack of rhythm directly impacted his market value, resulting in a drop of approximately €6 million compared to his previous value.
One of the most consistent scorers in Brazilian football in recent years, Pedro lost his place at the beginning of the season due to injuries and was even dropped from the squad following internal problems. Despite regaining prominence recently, his market value has dropped by around €2 million.
Left-back Viña also makes the rankings. Having only recovered from injury in the second half of the year, he competes for position with Alex Sandro and Ayrton Lucas, a factor that has contributed to his lack of performance. Michael , who also struggled with physical problems, became one of coach Filipe Luís's last attacking options, which explains his drop in rating.
