Latest information on Flamengo vs Deportivo Tachira forces

Flamengo will be without four key players, Nicolas de la Cruz, Gonzalo Plata, Erick Pulgar and Allan, due to injury. Meanwhile, Matias Vina still needs more time to regain his fitness after missing the entire 2025 season.

Wesley Franca has returned from domestic suspension, but Everton Soares and Brazil international Gerson remain doubtful as they both picked up minor injuries over the weekend.

Disciplinary issues are Tachira’s fatal weakness in the continental arena this season. The two red cards for Edicson Tamiche and Carlos Sosa in the recent match against Cordoba mean that both will miss this match.

Carlos Vivas returned from suspension for the fourth match against Quito, while Lucas Acevedo and Jose Balza were also fit and were on the bench for the 4-2 win at the weekend. Yanniel Hernandez, however, remains a doubt.

Latest expected lineup for Flamengo vs Deportivo Tachira

Flamengo:
Rossi; Danilo, Leo Ortiz, Leo Pereira; Varela, Everton Araujo, De Arrascaeta, Alex Sandro; Luiz Araujo, Pedro, Bruno Henrique

Deportivo Tachira:
Camargo; Rosales, Vivas, Maidana, Quintero; Saggiomo, Requena, Calzadilla, Cova; Sosa, Castillo

Latest football commentary on Flamengo vs Deportivo Tachira

Flamengo have the power to decide this week, because if they win, they will certainly pass the group stage regardless of the results of Central Cordoba or Quito, in the context of Group C having an extremely tight situation.

Central Cordoba will travel to Quito as the leaders of the group, three points ahead of Flamengo and the Ecuadorian side themselves. Quito are currently level on points with Flamengo but have a one-goal advantage on goal difference.

However, if Filipe Luis and his team stumble, they will face a great risk of falling to third place and having to play in the Copa Sudamericana.

In fact, the Brazilian team's situation was even more dire before the fifth match, when they were forced to defeat Quito to regain self-determination before this match.

Welcoming Tachira at home is the most comfortable scenario that Flamengo can hope for, because the Venezuelan representative has not won any points and is in a series of poor form.

A 2-0 win over Palmeiras on Sunday moved Flamengo to within one point of the top of the Brazilian league, promising an exciting title race this season.

However, all attention will now be focused on the continental stage, where Flamengo are considered strong candidates for victory when they host a Tachira side that is certain to be eliminated after five consecutive losses.

Tachira started their Libertadores campaign with a 1-0 home defeat to Flamengo in their opening match, and things have only gone from bad to worse for them since then.

This is in stark contrast to their form domestically, where Edgar Perez Greco's men have qualified for the Apertura finals with four consecutive wins over the past month.

A 4-2 win at Carabobo last weekend saw them officially booked their place in the final, and the fact that their last three defeats in their last nine games have all come in the Libertadores – a place where Tachira simply aren’t good enough to compete.
