Team News

Flamengo
Avai FC
  • Bruno Henrique and Vitinho were injured against Palmeiras and are doubts for Thursday.
  • Jorge Jesus could ring the changes to his usual squad, which means that Renê, Rodinei, Piris da Motta, Diego and Reiner should get an opportunity to start.
  • Arrascaeta and Gabriel Barbosa were standout performers last weekend and will be full of confidence here.
  • Avaí are still dealing with a number of injury concerns.
  • On top of that, Léo and João Paulo will serve a ban due to an accumulation of bookings. Paulinho and Luanderson will deputise.
  • Igor Fernandes should be restored to left-back after missing out last weekend.

Prediction

  • Despite the short period between matches, Flamengo didn't look tired against Palmeiras and put in a wonderful performance, beating the former champions 3-1 at home. Jorge Jesus' men will be full of confidence here.
  • Avaí earned a last-minute draw against Fluminense last time out and will also be confident here despite having already been relegated.
  • The hosts have a far better team and are expected to enjoy a routine win on Thursday.
