Palmeiras will face Flamengo on Saturday in the Libertadores final. The match will take place at 6pm Brasilia time, in Lima, Peru. Alverde’s training confirmed yesterday, at Alianza Lima Stadium, that Abel Ferreira will not be able to play with the injured trio: Paulinho, Lucas Evangelista, and Weverton. They only traveled to complete the delegation.
The striker and midfielder did not even go to the field, and the goalkeeper was carrying out activities separately. A fracture in his right hand takes him out of the match and gives Carlos Miguel another chance to start.
The formation should be the same as in recent matches, with doubts about positioning on the pitch, especially the midfielders. Rafael Vega and Andreas Pereira could play different roles in the final.
Possible lineup: Carlos Miguel; Kelvin, Murillo, Gustavo Gomez and Piquerez; Bruno Fuchs, Andreas Pereira and Rafael Vega; Alan, Flaco Lopez and Vitor Roque.
