Corinthians ready for Bragantino clash, probable line-up revealed | OneFootball

This Wednesday, Corinthians concluded their preparations to face Red Bull Bragantino, in a match valid for the second round of the Campeonato Paulista. The teams will face each other this Thursday at 7:30 PM (Brasília time) at the Cícero de Souza Marques Municipal Stadium.

The Corinthians team started activities at the Dr. Joaquim Grava Training Center with a tactical video prepared by Dorival Júnior. After that, the athletes did muscle activation in the gym and went to the field.

On the field, the players warmed up and performed tactical activities led by Dorival Júnior. The coach instructed the athletes in a small-sided exercise and also worked on Timão's set pieces.

The training session included the presence of Rodrigo Garro, Raniele, and Yuri Alberto, who were absent in the first round of the Paulistão. However, it is unlikely that the Argentine midfielder will play, as he is still recovering from a surgery on his left wrist. On the other hand, Raniele and Yuri Alberto emerge as new options for Dorival Júnior.

Probable Lineup

For the match, coach Dorival Júnior will have three confirmed absences. Midfielder José Martínez, who is still in Venezuela, will not return in time and is a loss for the team. Besides him, the injured Rodrigo Garro (recovering) and Memphis Depay will also not play.

Considering the absences and the upcoming match, the classic against São Paulo in the third round of the Paulistão, it is likely that Dorival Júnior will field: Hugo Souza; João Vitor, João Pedro, Gabriel Paulista, and Hugo Farias; Raniele (Dieguinho), Charles, and André Luiz; Breno Bidon; Vitinho, and Gui Negão (Yuri Alberto).
