One of the most capped Flamengo players in the current squad, right-back Léo Moura knows that the match against Náutico is crucial for the club's hopes in this Brazilian Championship. Even knowing the challenges of facing Náutico at Aflitos Stadium, Léo expects Flamengo to put on a strong performance.

"It's going to be a tough and complicated game. It really won't be easy. But if Flamengo wants to win the title, they have to go out there and win. We have to play with a lot of dedication. We know the pitch isn't the best, but that's no excuse. We have to go out there and play football, because we know we can win."

For Léo, the good squad that Flamengo has could be one of the red-black team's weapons in this final stretch of the Brazilian Championship.

"The last game was proof of that. Vandinho came on and decided the match. Flamengo is a group, and everyone is important. We have a very good squad, with great players. Our bench is fully capable of deciding a match."
