The doubt about the possible inclusion of Chilean Maldonado in the Flamengo team that faces Guarani on Saturday (November 20.11th) at Engenhão seems to have ended. The number 13 trained as a starter in the tactical session that Vanderlei Luxemburgo led this Friday (November 19.11th) at Ninho do Urubu. In the middle of the week, Maldonado played for the Chilean national team in coach Marcelo Bielsa's farewell friendly, but returned to Rio de Janeiro, did a physical activity on Thursday (November 18.11th) and regained his place in the starting lineup.

Therefore, Correa is expected to be on the bench. Kleberson was kept in the team, playing a little further forward alongside Renato. The starting lineup consisted of: Marcelo Lomba, Léo Moura, Welinton, Ronaldo Angelim and Juan; Maldonado, Williams, Kleberson and Renato; Diogo and Deivid. The substitutes were: Paulo Victor, Rafael Galhardo, Jean, David and Rodrigo Alvim; Fernando, Correa, Marquinhos and Guilherme Negueba; Diego Maurício and Val Baiano. Petkovic did physical work separately from the group on a supplementary field. The Serbian had not participated in Thursday's training due to gastroenteritis.

After training, the Flamengo team will head to the hotel in Barra da Tijuca where they have been staying since Thursday. Flamengo and Guarani will face each other at 19:30 pm on Saturday at the Engenhão stadium, needing a victory to remain firmly in the fight against relegation.
