Having a good season, Botafogo will have problems facing Flamengo in the derby away from home in the Brasileirão. Glorioso will be without Tiquinho Soares, who suffered an injury to the hamstring of his right thigh. According to confirmation from the Rio club itself, the return period is up to six weeks, that is, only in June.

With this, Tiquinho could be left out of other important matches, such as the two in the Copa do Brasil, against Vitória, and the rest of the group stage of the Libertadores da América.
The striker left the field after just 10 minutes of the match against Universitario, in the Libertadores. The confrontation still ended in a 3-1 victory for Rio.
Thinking about the confrontation against Flamengo and the rest of the season, Tiquinho Soares’ absence could have major impacts on Botafogo. The number 9 was, until then, the only healthy center forward in the squad. In recent days, Matheus Nacimento suffered a serious muscle injury and was absent for four months and Janderson was traded to Vitória.
