Returning to play at Maracanã, Flamengo faces Boavista this Tuesday (29), at 21 pm, and can qualify for the semifinals of the Campeonato Carioca. Against Nação, the red-black team seeks to maintain its good performance in the competition.
The Mais Querido has played three matches in the Guanabara Cup and has two wins and one draw. The team had a positive result against Botafogo in a derby last Sunday. Coming from behind, the Gávea team turned the game around thanks to debutant Bruno Henrique, who turned the match around to 2-1.
