Flamengo will face Bragantino on the 23rd, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, to settle the dispute in the Brazilian Championship. In search of a solid position in the G-4, Tite directs his attention to two crucial points: Erick Pulgar and Arrascaeta. The club is organizing an operation to ensure that both are in ideal condition, just two days after participating in the sixth round of the South American qualifiers.
In terms of GE, those called up for the Chilean and Uruguayan teams, Pulgar and Arrascaeta have appointments scheduled within a five-day interval. Next Thursday, Chile will face Paraguay at home, in Santiago, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time). Thirty minutes earlier, at Bombonera, Uruguay faces Argentina as a visitor. On November 21, two days before the clash between Flamengo and Bragantino, the Chileans face Ecuador at 8:30 pm (Brasília time), in Quito. At the same time, the Uruguayans host Bolivia.
The logistics for the recovery of the players are still in the planning phase, but the responsible department at Flamengo has always demonstrated agility in bringing its main athletes to decisive games. At the same time, Tite will train alternatives, considering the possibility of wear and tear or injuries during the process. In the first three matches of the qualifiers, Pulgar was an absolute starter in Eduardo Berizzo's choices, who did not replace him in any of these clashes. The number 5 was only absent in the 3-0 defeat to Venezuela due to a suspension.
The absence against Venezuela allowed Pulgar to return earlier than expected and stand out in the 90 minutes of Tite's debut, contributing to the 2-0 victory over Cruzeiro. In turn, Arrascaeta had limited participation in the qualifiers, playing just over 30 minutes. He sat out the first two rounds due to an injury to the biceps femoris of his left thigh. In the third round, he came on 16 minutes into the second half in the 2-2 draw with Colombia.
He was subsequently unused in the 2-0 win over Brazil. Varela, also called up by Marcelo Bielsa to represent Uruguay against Argentina and Bolivia, has not yet been used by Tite since the coach's arrival. The player's presence in the match against Bragantino remains uncertain, being yet another variable for Tite to consider when planning the strategy to consolidate his team in the G-4 of the Brazilian Championship.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

Tite defined Flamengo and announced the 11 starters who will face Peñarol, this Thursday, at Maracanã, at 7pm. De la Cruz returns to the starting lineup in place of Léo Ortiz, and Alex Sandro and Plata were retained. The duel with the Uruguayans is the first between the teams in the quarter-finals of the Copa Conmebol Libertadores.
Alex Sandro and Plata, debutants in last Sunday's classic, remain in the team after having good performances in the draw against Vasco. Gabigol is now out of the relationship due to fibrosis in the posterior muscle of his right thigh. Flamengo, in a statement, reported that the athlete did not suffer any injury in the region. Check it out:
"The Clube de Regatas do Flamengo informs that the athlete Gabriel Barbosa underwent tests that did not diagnose an injury to the posterior muscle of his right thigh. However, the Technical Committee opted for precaution and did not list him for the duel against Peñarol due to fibrosis in the region. Gabi is handed over to physiotherapists and physical trainers for the series of decisive games of the season."
Match starts at 7pm this Thursday
