Corinthians – coach: Vitor Pereira
– –
Timão’s lineup for this Wednesday’s game is a mystery. With Cantillo and Maycon out and Renato Augusto and Du Queiroz as doubts, Vítor Pereira has Giuliano and Roni as main options for midfielders in the professional squad.

With that, depending on certain absences or presences, some scenarios are possible in the middle. João Victor trained on Monday and could return to the team, while Gil looks like he will remain absent.
–
Possible team: Cassius; Fagner, João Victor, Raul Gustavo and Lucas Piton (Fábio Santos); Roni, Giuliano and Renato Augusto (Du Queiroz); Willian, Gustavo Mantuan and Róger Guedes.
