After landing in Salvador early yesterday evening, Flamengo held its last training session on Saturday afternoon (5), at CT Evaristo de Macedo, aiming for the match against Vitória, which takes place tomorrow (6), at 18:30 pm, at Barradão. The duel is valid for the second round of the Brasileirão. 




For the match, coach Filipe Luís will have some key returns. De Arrascaeta, Gerson, Plata, and Wesley joined the squad in Bahia and are available to the red-and-black manager. Mengão is looking for its first victory of the championship, having drawn 1-1 against Internacional in its opening match at Maracanã. 

Flamengo and Vitória have faced each other 65 times in history. The "Mais Querido" has won 39 times, drawn 16 times, and lost 10 times. In last year's Brazilian Championship, the Rio de Janeiro-based team defeated the Bahian team 2-1 at Barradão Stadium.
