There is still a lot of mystery surrounding the lineup with which Atlético will start the classic this Sunday (18) against Cruzeiro at Mineirão.
The Rooster finished its preparation on the afternoon of this Saturday (17) without a definition on the part of coach Cuca.
Cuello will serve an automatic suspension. And it's who impacts the doubts about the starting 11.
Preserved against Caracas, Alan Franco tends to return.
One of the possibilities is to advance Rubens to the left wing, leaving Caio Paulista on the left back - Arana only has a chance to stay on the bench.
Bernard is another who can be activated, which would guarantee Rubens on the back.
Another possibility is to bet on JĂșnior Santos from the start.
The likely Rooster to face the rival has: Everson; Natanael, Lyanco, Junior Alonso and Caio Paulista and Junior Alonso; Alan Franco, Fausto Vera, Gustavo Scarpa and Rubens; Rony and Hulk.
Cruzeiro and AtlĂ©tico will face each other from 8:30 pm (BrasĂlia time) this Sunday.
Classic valid for the ninth round of the BrasileirĂŁo.
The Rooster defends a series of five games without being overcome by the rival.
