Coach Jorge Sampaoli led the final tactical drill to determine the starting lineup for the final. Bruno Henrique, Ayrton Lucas, and Erick Pulgar are available for the match. It's worth noting that the trio sat out the last Brasileirão match against Athletico-PR.

Rubro-Negro will be competing for its ninth Copa do Brasil title in history. They have won four (1990, 2006, 2013, and 2022) and finished runners-up four times (1997, 2003, 2004, and 2017). With this year's final berth, the Mais Querido (Most Beloved) became the club that has reached the competition's final the most times, alongside Grêmio with nine.

Transmission
Globo, Sportv, Premiere, and Prime Video will broadcast the match live. FlaTV and FlaTV+ will be live from 12 p.m. (FlaTV+) for the pre-match coverage. Once kick-off begins, the broadcast will be audio-only, with commentary and commentary provided by 100% Flamengo fans.

1️⃣ day left! ???⚫
