In the struggle for the top of the classification of the Brazilian championship, Flamengo receives Atletico Mineiro this Sunday, the sixteenth, in Maracanã, in a duel valid for the 17th round. The game will be broadcast live at 20:30, on Sportv Channel and Premiere.

With 33 added points, Flamengo is only a point of the leader Cruzeiro and still has one game less in the tournament. The Rio team tries to keep the good phase after the club’s world cup. After the defeat in Santos, black red raised with important victories against Fluminense and Red Bull Bragantino. There are three triumphs in the last four rounds.

On the athletic side, the backstage mood is far from ideal. Despite the place guaranteed in the next phase of South America, the week was marked by the voltage behind the scenes, with the players who triggered the club on the pitch to load wages late. The defeat for Bucaramanga on Thursday, even with the place won in the penalty, has increased the pressure and the fans expect an immediate reaction in the national classic against Flamengo.
