On the Verdão side, coach Abel Ferreira will have the return of defensive midfielder Aníbal Moreno. The Argentine is back after serving a suspension and starts in the starting lineup. On the side, Khellven remains on the right back. Midfielder Erick Belé, champion for the under-20s during the week, is a new face on the bench.
The Corinthians lineup includes: Hugo Souza; Charles, André Ramalho, Gustavo Henrique and Angileri; Raniele, Maycon, Breno Bidon and Rodrigo Garro; Memphis Depay and Gui Negão.
The Palmeiras lineup is: Weverton; Khellven, Gustavo Gómez, Murilo and Piquerez; Aníbal Moreno, Lucas Evangelista, Mauricio and Felipe Anderson; Flaco López and Vitor Roque.
