This Saturday, at CT Joaquim Grava, Corinthians concluded their preparation to face Vasco in the 21st round of the Brazilian Championship. The teams will face off this Sunday at 4 PM (Brasília time) at São Januário.
The group of athletes started the day with weight training indoors and warm-ups on the field. Following that, under the command of Dorival Júnior, they performed ball activities.
The coach will not be able to count on five players: forwards Yuri Alberto (inguinal hernia) and Memphis Depay (thigh muscle injury), midfielders Carrillo (ankle surgery) and José Martínez (hand surgery), and defender Hugo (inguinal hernia).
On the other hand, Dorival can count on the return of defender Cacá, defender Angileri, and forward Romero, who have served their suspensions and are eligible to play. However, it is likely that none of them will be among the starting eleven.
Thus, a probable lineup for Timão is: Hugo Souza; Matheuzinho, André Ramalho, Gustavo Henrique, and Matheus Bidu; Raniele, Charles (Maycon), Breno Bidon, and Garro; Gui Negão and Kayke (Romero or Talles Magno).
The Alvinegro is going through a delicate moment and is threatened by the relegation zone in the Brazilian Championship. Corinthians has not known victory for six rounds and is in 14th place with 22 points – three more than Vitória, the team that opens the relegation zone.
