This Tuesday, 05, ‘Sporting Cristal x Flamengo’ marks the beginning of another edition of Libertadores and promises to deliver many emotions to fans
This Tuesday, the 5th, ‘Sporting Cristal x Flamengo‘ marks the start of the Libertadores group stage. In the first game of the new season of the tournament, the teams enter the field to start on the right foot and start their journey towards the round of 16. The ball rolls from 21:30 (time of Brasilia).
Still in the beginning of the season, Sporting Cristal relies on the home factor to take advantage of the unstable moment of the Rio rival and add important points in the fight for the top two positions. At first, the Peruvian team will maintain the base that has been climbing in recent games to count on the support of the fans.
CHANNEL – ATHLETISTIC:
On the other hand, Flamengo tries to end the bad phase after losing the state decision. With a lot of criticism and pressure from the fans, the club from Rio hopes to count on the strength of the squad to confirm the technical advantage and return from the neighboring country with the three points in the bag, in addition to the leadership of the group.
However, Rubro-Negro will not be able to count on the presence of the midfielder arrascaeta, who had an ankle problem and is out of his Libertadores debut. Instead, the technician Paulo Sousa can climb Diego or keep Everton Ribeiro centralized and bet once again on Vitinho or Marine in the starting lineup.
Although Arrascaeta was on the field last Saturday, 02, in the match against Fluminenseby the decision of the Campeonato Carioca, which ended up being won by the Tricolores, the medical department of Rubro-Negro chose to leave him out of this first commitment valid for Libertadores.
