Team News

Flamengo
Criciuma
  • Caretaker coach Jayme de Almeida could make a couple of changes to the side that drew with Botafogo in the Brazilian Cup.
  • Elias and Víctor Cáceres will both be hoping to return in midfield.
  • But the flexible Luiz Antônio may keep his place.
  • Sílvio will be without midfielder João Vítor, who is suspended.
  • Morais and Daniel Carvalho could form a creative pairing behind the strikers.
  • Tony will continue at right-back in the absence of the injured Sueliton.

Prediction

  • Teetering above the relegation zone, Fla will hope that their players react well to a change of management.
  • The post-Mano Menezes era has started with two draws: a disappointing 0-0 against Náutico and a more promising 1-1 with Botafogo.
  • Criciúma would overtake the Rubro-Negro with a victory here.
