Latest Flamengo vs Chelsea squad information
Flamengo received good news when veteran defender Alex Sandro – former Juventus player – recovered and was ready to return to the starting lineup after missing the first round due to injury. This is a valuable addition to the Brazilian team’s already solid defense. In addition, the duo Jorginho and De Arrascaeta are still key pillars, contributing to maintaining stability in the midfield.
Meanwhile, Chelsea suffered a significant loss in terms of personnel. Wesley Fofana is still absent due to a long-term injury, while Mykhaylo Mudryk is suspended. Notably, a series of pillars such as Petrovic, Disasi, Sterling and Joao Felix are not on the list to play in the US due to transfer issues. This forced coach Enzo Maresca to put his trust in young players such as Delap, Madueke and Palmer in the attacking scheme.
Latest expected lineup for Flamengo vs Chelsea
- Chelsea (4-2-3-1):Sanchez; James, Adarabioyo, Colwill, Cucurella; Fernandez, Caicedo; Neto, Palmer, Madueke; Delap
- Flamengo (4-2-3-1):Rossi; Varela, Ortiz, Pereira, Sandro; Pulgar, Jorginho; Gerson, De Arrascaeta, Araujo; Henrique
Latest Flamengo vs Chelsea football review
Flamengo are flying high under the guidance of coach Filipe Luis – a former Chelsea player. The Brazilian team has won all 5 of their recent matches, including some impressive victories and kept 4 consecutive clean sheets. In particular, the 2-0 victory over Esperance in the first round of the Club World Cup was a clear demonstration of their cohesion and efficiency in their playing style.
That impressive form is further reinforced by the fact that Flamengo are leading the Brazilian National Championship and possess a technical style of play and the ability to press high. Statistics from the beginning of the year show that they have lost only 3/46 recent matches, a record that makes any opponent wary.
However, Chelsea are not far behind. Coach Enzo Maresca's team has just gone through a series of 9 wins in the last 10 matches, including important victories against MU, Real Betis and Los Angeles FC. Despite the lack of force, the blue team still shows good organization and high performance from young players with potential.
The upcoming match is considered an "early final" of Group D, as both teams have 3 points from the opening round. With similar strength and high form, both sides are likely to enter the match cautiously. Chelsea can control the ball better thanks to their tactical organization, while Flamengo has a breakthrough in the way they play and the advantage of experienced veterans.
In all respects, this is a very balanced match and it is not easy to determine the winner. Most likely, the two teams will share the points in a tight, low-scoring match.
