With the absence of the attacker, the black and white team has problems in the attack to solve. Without Matheus Nascimento, also injured, and Janderson, now at Vitória, Artur Jorge must bring Eduardo to replace Tiquinho in the classic against Flamengo.
Thus, Tiquinho must miss Botafogo in the games against Vitória in the Brazil’s Cupagainst LDU, Universitario and Junior Barranquilla in the Libertadores, and Flamengo, Bahia and Fortaleza in the Brazilian Championship.
If the recovery forecast is fulfilled, the number 9 should return to the pitch in the clash against Athletico-PR, at Nilton Santos, for the Brasileirão. The tendency is for the player to be 100% as of June 7th.
Tiquinho left the game against Universitario, for the Libertadores, nine minutes into the first half, after sprinting towards his own area. Then the player stopped running and soon asked for a substitution towards the bench.
