Flamengo and Grêmio meet this Wednesday (25) at Arena do Grêmio, in a match valid for the 29th round of the Brazilian Championship. This will be the fourth meeting between the teams in 2023, and Rubro-Negro emerged victorious in all of them. In the first round of the Brasileirão, Flamengo defeated their rival with a 3-0 victory.

Furthermore, in the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil, the first game ended with a score of 2-0 in favor Flamengo, while the return game had a 1-0 result in favor of the Rio team. Mais Querido was runner-up in a final against São Paulo later.


Flamengo enters the clash against Grêmio after achieving a victory in the classic against Vasco, with a score of 1-0, maintaining its quest for the top of the table. The team's main objective is to guarantee direct classification for the 2024 Libertadores.

The decision of Tite sparing the cast entirely raises some questions. On the one hand, it preserves players for more important commitments and minimizes the risk of injuries at a time when physical exhaustion can be a serious problem. On the other hand, placing an alternative team in a Brazilian Championship match, which is still in dispute, can be seen as risky, as a defeat or even a draw could have consequences on the table.

In addition , the choice of David Luiz and Cleiton in defense and Allan and Everton Araújo in midfield suggests that Tite trusts in the depth of his squad. He seems to believe that, even with the changes, the team will be able to compete at a high level. This also gives reserve players a chance to show their value, which could be crucial for the squad's dynamics in the coming weeks.


FLAMENGO HAS ITS TOUGH TIME

Another relevant point of this strategy is the issue of integration. A team that doesn't usually play together may have difficulty adapting to the demands of a high-level match, especially against opponents who are playing for real and with their starting team. The lack of rhythm among players can be a challenge to be faced, but it is also an opportunity for these athletes to gain experience and adapt more quickly to the demands of elite football.

Tite, known for being A meticulous strategist, he must have considered these factors when choosing to rotate the squad at this point in the championship. The choices reflect a balance between the physical preservation of the main players and the need to keep the team competitive throughout the season. The expectation is that this decision, even if bold, will not compromise the team's performance in the championship.

This Sunday's clash will be an important test of the depth of the squad and the ability of reserve players to take on responsibilities at crucial moments. Cleiton, for example, will have the chance to show that he can be a reliable option for the defense in the future, and Allan and Everton Araújo will have the task of controlling the midfield and dictating the pace of the game.

This Sunday, for the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship, the coach Tite made a decision that caught attention: he will spare the entire starting team for the clash. With the tight schedule and sequence of games, the coach chose to preserve his main athletes for future commitments, focusing on keeping the squad in good physical condition and avoiding injuries. This rotation strategy, common in long competitions, reflects the need to keep the squad fresh and competitive in the decisive phases of the season.

In defense, Tite will bet on a formation with David Luiz, who brings experience to the sector, forming a duo with young Cleiton, one of the squad's promises. Cleiton will have a great opportunity to show his service and gain confidence playing alongside a veteran with experience with the Brazilian national team and prominent clubs in Europe. The choice of David Luiz for this match, even with the team being spared, demonstrates the importance of having leadership on the field to guide and organize the defense.

Cast has no break< /b>

With total focus on the knockout game, the red-and-black squad has continued without a break since last Sunday's game (11) against Palmeiras, and intensifies its preparation for the main tournament on the southern continent -American. According to Coluna do Fla, the group will have training at 3:00 pm (Brasília time) this Tuesday (13).


Bolívar promises to go all the way

Bolívar's coach, Flávio Robatto, and the midfielder Ramiro Vaca guarantee that they will not go to Rio de Janeiro to just defend themselves, but they hope to be protagonists in the match. “The idea is that Bolívar does not change his plans and tries to be a protagonist. Because in any case, facing this type of team, with such great quality, such good players and such good work, defending yourself is not the best option”, said the coach.
