Fluminense receives Chapecoense, from 9:30 pm (Brasilia time) this Wednesday (9) at Maracanã stadium, for the last round of the Brazilian Championship. And Tricolor das Laranjeiras arrives at the confrontation with the bottom of the competition with a clear objective, to guarantee a direct spot for the group stage of the next edition of the Libertadores Cup.

Occupying the 7th position in the standings with 51 points, Fluminense has to beat the already relegated Verdão do Oeste (which has only 15 points) and hope for a stumble by Bragantino (6th place with 53 points, which measures forces with Internacional) to get a direct seat to the continent's premier club competition. Keeping the 7th place, the Laranjeiras team is in Pre-Libertadores

For this match, coach Marcão will send an unprecedented squad to the field, as Tricolor has four suspended players (Fred, Yago, Wellington and Manoel) and two other changes will be made, the departure of striker Caio Paulista, for the entry of Colombian Jhon Arias , and from the lateral Danilo Barcelos, who gives way to Marlon.

Thus, Fluminense should enter the field with the following formation: Marcos Felipe; Samuel Xavier, Luccas Claro, David Braz and Marlon; André, Martinelli and Cazares; Luiz Henrique, Jhon Arias and Bobadilla.

If the Rio team seeks to take higher flights with this match, for Chapecoense, winning three points represents avoiding the worst campaign for a team in the history of the straight points era of the Brazilian Nationals.
