The third clash in less than a month! Flamengo and Atlético-MG face each other again this Wednesday (6), at 19 pm, at Arena MRV, in search of a place in the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil. In the first leg of the round of 1, played at Maracanã, the Minas Gerais team won 0-XNUMX. With that, Mengão needs to win by two goals to advance to the next stage. A one-goal victory takes the decision to penalties. 

Coach Filipe Luís led the final training session on Tuesday morning (5) to determine the starting lineup that will take to the field. Athletes Bruno Henrique and Luiz Araújo are undergoing a load control process and were not included in the match. After training, the red-black squad left for Belo Horizonte.
