📋 Flamengo named to face Estudiantes and eye last-16 spot

Flamengo take the field this Wednesday (29) as they visit Estudiantes at Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium in Argentina at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), for the third round of the 2026 Conmebol Libertadores group stage.

Leading Group A with six points, the Rubro-Negro could put themselves in a very strong position to qualify for the round of 16 with another win in the continental tournament.

The Argentinians, meanwhile, are in second place with four points.

Independiente Medellín (one point) and Cusco (zero) complete the group.

Compared to the last match (a 4-0 win over Atlético-MG in the Brasileirão), coach Leonardo Jardim opted to start Emerson Royal, Danilo, Vitão, Luiz Araújo and Bruno Henrique in place of Varela, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira, Gonzalo Plata and Pedro, respectively, for Flamengo.
