Meanwhile, Atletico have been in poor form recently and their position in the league can't be improved much, which is why we can see Flamengo edging out a narrow win in this game.

Flamengo preview: Hoping for another win over Atletico
With just one loss in their last 11 games in all competitions, Flamengo have been doing very well lately. Furthermore, they've won Copa do Brasil by beating Atletico Mineiro in both legs of the final. When it comes to their league position, Flamengo are fifth at the moment and 10 points behind league leaders Botafogo, but they also have a game in hand, so they are still in the title race, at least theoretically.
Meanwhile, Pedro remains out for the season, while Flamengo are also without Carlinhos, Nicolas De La Cruz, and Luiz Araujo.
Predicted lineup: Rossi (GK), Wesley, Bruno, Ortiz, Lucas, Michael, de Arrascaeta, Evertton, Pulgar, Gerson & Barbosa

Atletico Mineiro preview: Hoping to end their poor run of form
After losing both games in Copa do Brasil final to Flamengo, Atletico have extended their winless streak to five games in all competitions. Furthermore, Atletico MG haven't been great in the league this season, as they currently sit in the middle of Serie A standings and even not to far ahead of the relegation zone. On the bright side, Atletico will play Botafogo in the final of Copa Libertadores in a couple of weeks.
When it comes to team news, only Cadu is on Atletico's injury list at the moment

Player to watch: Giorgian De Arrascaeta
With five goals and five assists in Serie A this season, the experienced midfielder has been one of Flamengo's key contributors on the offensive end and we expect him to do well against Atletico MG too.
