Flamengo returned this Friday morning, in Gávea, for the penultimate training session before facing Botafogo, on Sunday, at 19:10 pm, in Maracanã, in a game that could put the red-black team back in the G-4 of the Brazilian Championship.

During tactical training, the bad news was the absence of full-back Léo Moura. The player felt pain in the adductor muscle of his right thigh and was rested from the training session. The number 2 will be re-evaluated tomorrow and is not guaranteed to be in the starting lineup for Sunday's derby.

With Léo's absence, Luizinho was given a chance on the right wing. Caio Júnior named Flamengo's starting lineup as Bruno; Jailton, Fábio Luciano, and Ronaldo Angelim; Luizinho, Airton, Ibson, Sambueza, and Juan; Maxi and Marcelinho Paraíba.
