Marlon has knee pain and misses the Fluminense in the Fla-Flu


The defender is another absence for Fluminense, who will also have to do without André, Douglas Costa and Samuel Xavier




On the eve of the duel with Flamengo, Fluminense has earned another absence for the duel that will take place this Saturday (9), at 9pm (Brasilia time), at the Maracanã. This is Marlon, who had pain in his right knee and has already started treatment at coach Carlos Castilho. In addition to the defender, the Tricolore will also have to do without André, suspended, Samuel Xavier and Douglas Costas, both injured.

Despite being a reserve, the defender has often entered the team, even more so when Fernando Diniz cannot count on the starting pair: Felipe Melo and Thiago Santos. He played in the last round of the Guanabara Cup, Sunday (3), against Botafogo, who dropped the team in the standings and faced Rubro-Negro in the semi-final.

At right back, Guga will start as Samuel Xavier has suffered a right calf muscle injury. André, in turn, was sent off during the restart of the clash with Alvinegro and is disqualified. In the same match Douglas Costa felt pain and had a previous injury to his right thigh.

The return is scheduled for the 17th, but Ferj has not yet confirmed the time, which will happen next week. Rubro-Negro, having been champion of the Guanabara Cup, plays for two draws. Finally, in the other group, Nova Iguaçu and Vasco compete for a place in the State Championship.
