With a 2-0 victory over Volta Redonda and a guaranteed spot in the Guanabara Cup semifinals, coach Joel Santana confirmed that he will use Sunday's Fla-Flu match to test some players.

- "The team will be made up of most of the players who are not playing. We did a very good job in this first phase, and it gives us the opportunity to test some players. Even though we are not the main team, Flamengo is always looking for a win."

The commander highlighted the strength of the red-black team that will enter the field.

- "Even though we won't be using our main players, our team will be very strong for the Fla-Flu. We have Maxi, Obina, Diego Tardelli, Kleberson, Cristian who are great players and will represent Flamengo very well."
