After the 1-0 defeat at Maracanã, Flamengo arrives in Belo Horizonte determined to seek qualification for the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil. The decisive match against Atlético-MG takes place this Wednesday (6), at 7 pm , at Arena MRV, with broadcast by Gazeta do Urubu.

ARRASCAETA RETURNS TO THE TEAM


Arrascaeta, who was even left off the bench in the first leg, is back after tests revealed no injury. The number 10 takes center stage in midfield alongside Evertton Araújo and Jorginho . Suspended in the last Brasileirão game, the number 21 also returns to the team.

ATTACK REINFORCED WITH PLATA AND SAMUEL LINO


Up front, Filipe Luís maintains the attacking trio of Pedro, Plata, and Cebolinha . The coach acknowledged that the former Atlético striker may have been significantly fatigued against Ceará, but the need to win by two goals makes his presence crucial.

VARELA IS CHOSEN ON THE RIGHT SIDE

At right-back, the battle between Varela and Emerson Royal ended with the Uruguayan being chosen as the starter . On the left, Ayrton Lucas continues to hold the position, with Alex Sandro and Viña being rested – the latter due to the artificial turf at Arena MRV.

FLAMENGO'S SHORTAGES


Flamengo will have significant absences for the match. Bruno Henrique and Luiz Araújo were not included due to physical stress management, a precaution taken by the medical department after a busy streak.

Given this, Filipe Luís will have to reorganize his attacking side to maintain his attacking power and secure a positive result away from home. Rubro-Negro hasn't won in two consecutive matches, against Atlético-MG and Ceará, which increases the pressure for a strong performance.

Flamengo returns to the field this Wednesday (06), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), to face Atlético-MG, at Arena MRV, in a decisive clash for the round of 16 of the Copa Betano do Brasil . With an eye on the sixth title of the competition, Rubro-Negro sees the duel as a key moment for the season.


Beyond its sporting significance, the match could mark a symbolic milestone for Filipe Luís. Since taking over the team in October 2024, the former full-back has been a key player in an attacking and effective Flamengo team. According to Sofascore data, under his leadership, the team has scored 98 goals in 58 matches , an average of 1.69 goals per match. Now, the club is just two goals away from reaching the 100-goal mark under the current coach.


ARRASCAETA NECESSARY


Uruguayan Giorgian De Arrascaeta is the leading scorer of the "Filipinho Era," with 16 goals, and is a pillar of the team in the finals. Luiz Araújo and Bruno Henrique have also been excelling and are among the top scorers of the period, bolstering the red-and-black's attacking prowess.

With a skilled squad, solid performance, and a thriving attack, Flamengo arrives confidently to face Galo and fight for a spot in the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals. Mengão needs to win by two goals to qualify without resorting to penalty kicks, which would guarantee the coach his centennial milestone.


PROBABLE LINEUPS

ATLÉTICO-MG: Everson; Saravia, Lyanco, Junior Alonso and Arana (Scarpa); Alexsander, Alan Franco, Scarpa (Igor Gomes); Ron, Hulk and Cuello. Coach: Cuca

FLAMENGO: Rossi; Emerson Royal, Leo Ortiz, Leo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Allan, Jorginho, Arrascaeta; Luiz Araújo, Samuel Lino and Pedro. Coach: Filipe Luis
