The home team is Bangu, but Flamengo's third game for the Guanabara Cup will be at the João Havelange Olympic Stadium (Engenhão). Initially scheduled for Moça Bonita, in the West Zone of the city, the location of this Saturday's match, January 23rd, at 01 pm, was changed by the Rio de Janeiro State Football Federation (FERJ).

According to an act of the Technical Department of FERJ (see in
http://www.fferj.com.br/Sitenovo/comunicados/ATDT00110.pdf), motivaram a decisão o relatório do delegado da FERJ na estreia do Bangu, ante o Boavista, em jogo realizado no dia\ 16, quando ele teria constatado problemas de segurança. Outra azão é um parecer da Polícia Militar, recomendando a não utilização do estádio para partidas de grande porte.

Built to host the athletics competitions of the Pan American Games in Rio, the Olympic stadium has been managed by Botafogo Futebol de Regatas since the second half of 2007. The stadium is located across from the Engenho de Dentro train station. Other access points are the Linha Amarela (Yellow Line) and Avenida Suburbana (See map at www.botafogonocoracao.com.br/mapa.html).
