The Flamengo is already set for the long-awaited Classic of Millions against Vasco, which takes place this Sunday, at 4pm, at Maracanã, in the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship. Coach Tite will have the return of defender Fabrício Bruno, who turned down a proposal from West Ham to continue at the Rio club. He will form a defensive duo with David Luiz, consolidating the red and black defense.
In training this Saturday, Tite confirmed the lineup that will take the field against Vasco. Flamengo's likely starting lineup will consist of Rossi in goal; Varela, Fabrício Bruno, David Luiz and Viña on the defensive line; Allan, De la Cruz, Arrascaeta and Gerson in midfield; Everton Cebolinha and Pedro in attack.
CHANGES AFTER SALE NOT COMPLETEDThe return of Fabrício Bruno is welcome news for the fans, who were eager to see the defender back after West Ham's rejected proposal. David Luiz, who had been a starter, maintains his position alongside Fabrício Bruno in defense.
Flamengo will have two important absences for the classic . Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas are out of the game due to injuries. Léo Pereira, in addition to the injury, is also suspended and would not be able to play even if he were in ideal physical condition. These absences forced Tite to adjust the team, but the coach trusts in the strength of the squad to overcome these absences.

Coach Tite is in a delicate situation at Flamengo. After the elimination in the Libertadores against Peñarol (URU), the coach's continuity began to be discussed behind the scenes at the club. Because of this, part of the board is trying to convince Filipe Luís to take command of the main team until the end of 2024.
However, Filipe Luís believes that it is not yet the ideal time to take on this responsibility. The former player currently coaches Flamengo's under-20 team, where he has already won the Copa Rio, against Vasco, and the World Cup, with a comeback victory over Olympiacos (GRE) at Maracanã. The information was released by journalist Paulo Vinicius Coelho.
“ Flamengo's management is trying to convince Filipe Luís to be the coach until the end of the year. No one will confirm this information, but no one has denied it. But Filipe Luís wouldn't want to take over, precisely because of the scenario of how things are happening. In other words, Tite is being raffled off in a way that is not appropriate for a coach of his size”, said PVC on the program 'De Primeira', on Uol.
According to the portal 'Coluna do Fla', Flamengo's board of directors scheduled a meeting for the weekend, with the aim of evaluating the team's recent results under Tite's command. Despite this, the possibility of dismissal before the confrontation with Corinthians, in the semi-final of the Copa do Brasil, is practically ruled out.
After winning the Under-20 World Cup title, on August 24, Filipe Luís commented on the possibility of coaching Flamengo's main team. The former full-back highlighted that he still needs to prepare more and gain the fans' trust in his new role before taking this step.
“The responsibility is different today (in the professional world), it largely depends on the result , not my performance. I feel the weight of work, but I'm doing what I love most, what I want and I feel increasingly prepared. I started in the right place, which is at the base. I've been wrong, I've been right. The player was left behind and I have to win the affection of the fans on the other side, as a coach. If I manage Flamengo in the future, I want to be as prepared as possible. But I still have to prepare myself”, said the U20 coach.

For the most optimistic Flamengo fan, who still believes in the Brasileirão title, Saturday (28) will be crucial in the search for the next championship.

Botafogo x Grêmio, 9 p.m., Estádio Mané Garrincha, Brasília
None of the home teams will play in their usual stadium. Palmeiras chose to play at Brinco de Ouro, in Campinas, due to Eric Clapton's concert at Allianz Parque, on Sunday (29). Botafogo, in turn, reached an agreement with Grêmio for the match to take place in Brasília, in solidarity with the club from Rio Grande do Sul, which faced difficulties playing at the Porto Alegre Arena in the first round, due to the floods in Rio Grande do Sul .
There is a great possibility that Atlético-MG will enter the field with a reserve team. The Minas Gerais club played in the middle of the week, beating Fluminense in the quarter-finals of the Libertadores, and faces Vasco, on Wednesday (02), in the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil. Palmeiras, on the other hand, is fully focused on the Brasileirão, after being eliminated from the Copa do Brasil by Flamengo and the Libertadores by Botafogo.
Botafogo, driven by its classification over the São Paulo in the Libertadores, arrives confident to face Grêmio. However, the team from Rio Grande do Sul is on alert, after losing at home to Criciúma and remaining just three points above the relegation zone.
Botafogo leads the Brasileirão with 56 points, followed closely by Palmeiras, with 53. If John Textor's team loses and Palmeiras win, Abel Ferreira's team takes the lead on goal difference. Fortaleza, which faces Cuiabá on Sunday (29), is in third place with 52 points, while Flamengo closes the G4 with 45 points and one game less.

Forward Michael is back training at Flamengoafter a period away due to an injury to the hamstring of his right thigh. With his recovery complete, he is already participating in activities with the squad and becomes a possible option for the Rubro-Negro coach in the club's next match, this Sunday (29), against Athletico-PR, in a game valid for the Brazilian Championship. .
Michael's presence in training is already an important step forward, but his inclusion in the list of related players still depends on how he responds to the final training sessions before the match. In the coming days, the coaching staff must evaluate the athlete's physical performance and ability to perform in a high-intensity game. The caution is due to the time Michael spent away, which requires a gradual readjustment to training and the rhythm of the game to avoid new complications.
If it is really related, shirt 30 could bring an interesting offensive alternative to Flamengo. His playing style, marked by speed, dribbling and movement, offers the team a different dynamic in the attacking sector. However, it is necessary to observe how he will behave after his return, considering the need to regain confidence and rhythm after the injury.
The Flamengo coach already has in mind the squad he should use in the Sunday's match, but the possible addition of Michael to the list expands the options, especially at an important moment in the Brazilian Championship, where every point is essential to keep the team at the top of the table. Furthermore, the player's return can help make up for any absences in the attack and add value to the team's tactical system.
