This Sunday (5), at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), Flamengo faces Bahia , at Arena Fonte Nova, for the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. Despite Tricolor being the third best home team in the competition, the historical record and tactical analysis indicate promising paths for Filipe Luís' team to seek the three points away from home.
Coach Filipe Luís should send onto the field a Flamengo team with: Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz, Danilo and Ayrton Lucas; De La Cruz (Allan), Jorginho and Arrascaeta; Plata (Carrascal), Samuel Lino (Everton Cebolinha) and Pedro (Bruno Henrique).
On the other side, Rogério Ceni's Bahia faces a series of absences, 12 in total, and will need to find alternatives to form the team. The likely starting lineup includes: Ronaldo; Gilberto, David Duarte (Fredi), Rezende, and Zé Guilherme; Acevedo, Jean Lucas, and Everton Ribeiro; Kayky, Iago Borduchi (Michel Araujo, Tiago, or Cauly), and Willian José.
Flamengo's recent record gives them confidence. Since 2006, in 11 matches under Bahia, the Red-Blacks have won six (55%), drawn two, and lost three . Their dominance has been heightened in recent matches: in the last seven matches, they have won five, drawn one, and lost only one. This record reinforces the Red-Black Nation's optimism for another decisive round in the fight for the Brasileirão title.
Midfielder wants to stay at Mengão until the end of his career and an absurd season should bring results for a contract extension
05 Out 2025 | 15:00 |
Flamengo and Giorgian De Arrascaeta are close to sealing a new contract agreement . Talks resumed in recent weeks, and new meetings are expected to take place during the FIFA World Cup break, with the aim of finalizing the details of a renewal until December 2028, with an automatic extension until 2029 subject to performance targets. This information was provided by the 'GE' portal.
The number 10 is currently under contract with the club until the end of 2026, but he has publicly expressed his desire to stay longer. Initially, the board saw no need to bring forward the negotiations , but their stance has changed given the Uruguayan's prominence, as he is enjoying his highest-scoring season since joining Flamengo in 2019.
Flamengo has already received the midfielder's salary expectations and has continued the talks that began in February, which had been interrupted in May. Negotiations are being led by executive director José Boto and businessman Daniel Fonseca , a former Uruguayan international who has been responsible for Arrascaeta's career.
After initial unease, when negotiations were postponed on the grounds that the issue would only be resumed in 2025 , the parties are now in sync and optimistic. Fonseca and Boto are expected to meet again next week in Rio de Janeiro to advance the agreement.
The club's board decided to address the issue during the strike period to avoid distracting from the season's sporting objectives. In addition to Arrascaeta, the club also plans to extend Filipe Luís's contract.
Arrascaeta has 19 goals and 13 assists in 48 appearances for Flamengo in 2025, figures that place him as one of the squad's standout performers. In 2019 alone, his first year with the club, he directly contributed to more goals: 18 scored and 19 assists.
