Flamengo lost their lead at the top of the table after that sad loss to Cruzeiro two weeks ago, but they bounced back to winning ways with a win over Bahia in their last league game. Bahia is always a very tough team for Flamengo, and the 1-0 victory cost Flamengo a red card to Gerson in the 87th minute from a hard tackle. The game before Bahia was against Cruzeiro. Cruzeiro drew the first blood with a goal from Kaio Jorge in the 15th minute, but the 30-year-old Arrascaeta pulled one back for Flamengo in the 44th minute. Gabriel Barbosa failed to convert a penalty from the spot in the 96th minute, but as goalkeeper Rossi saved it, Barbosa got a rebound and found the net.
In the Copa Libertadores, the Cariocas started their campaign with a narrow 0-1 victory over Deportivo Tachira, with Juninho scoring the only goal of the game. They then faced Central Cordoba in their second group stage game, which eventually ended in a 1-2 defeat as they were outclassed. Their third group stage game against LDU Quito ended in a goalless draw. They then struggled against Central Cordoba in their fourth and most recent Group C game. These inconsistencies have brought them to this point, and it’s a win or nothing for Flamengo in the Libertadores this season.
Flamengo: Lineup
Former Atletico-Madrid and Chelsea left-back Felipe Luis has been incredible since joining Flamengo, and he will be hoping for a good performance in the Copa Libertadores this season. Alex Sandro has recovered and is ready to play. Ayrton Lucas has been performing well, so he could keep his place in the starting eleven.
🔖Flamengo starting lineup (4-2-3-1)
Rossi – Wesley, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira, Ayrton Lucas – Pulgar, De la Cruz, – Gerson, Arrascaeta, Henrique – Pedro

LDU (2nd)
LDU started their journey in the Copa Libertadores with a goalless draw against Central Cordoba in the competition's opening game. They then secured their first victory in the competition against Deportivo Tachira in round 2. Arce got the brace that gave LDU the much-needed victory in that game and catapulted them to the top of Group C. They then welcomed Flamengo to their home, and no blood was shed; the game eventually ended in a goalless draw, and both teams took a share of the spoils. That singular draw against Flamengo took them down to second place in group C, but they ensured they maintained their position in second place with a 2-3 win over Deportivo Tachira in their fourth game. This is the last chance for LDU, and as little as a draw will take them through to the knockout rounds. In the Copa Libertadores last year, LDU couldn’t make it past the group stage as they finished third, and they’ll be hoping this year is any better.
In the Ecuadorian league table, LDU is having a great time as they are currently 4th in the league with 5 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses from the 11 games played. They played Macara in their last match, and the game ended in a narrow 0-1 victory for LDU.
LDU Quito: Probable Lineup
Pablo Andres Sanchez needs his best team for this game, and some players were rested over the weekend just for this game. Pablo Sanchez likes to use a single forward upfront, which is Alex Arce, who has scored two goals so far for LDU in the Copa Libertadores.
🔖 LDU Probable starting lineup (4-1-4-1)
Dominguez– Quintero, Aimar, Mina, Enrique — Minda— Ramirez, Villamil, Cornejo, Pastran– Alex Arce
👤 Head coach: Pablo Andres Sanchez
