Everything is ready for another classic of Brazilian football. Flamengo finished this Saturday morning (18), at Ninho do Urubu, the preparation for the match against Atlético-MG, which will be played tomorrow (19), at 16 pm, at Mineirão. The match is valid for the 13th round of the Brasileirão.

Midfielder Thiago Maia showed up with a fever and body aches this Saturday. He was tested for COVID-19 and tested negative. He was released from the squad and will not be included in the match against the Minas Gerais team.

After training this morning, the red-black delegation will head to Belo Horizonte, the location of this Sunday's match.

Flamengo and Atlético-MG have faced each other 119 times, with Atlético-MG having the upper hand. Flamengo has won 47 times, drawn 33 times, and lost 39 times.

An important factor in this matchup is that Everton Ribeiro will be making his 300th appearance for the Sacred Mantle. Willian Arão, if he takes the field, will reach the 200-game mark for the Most Beloved in the Brazilian Championship.
