São Paulo: Cauly may start as surprise pick vs Coritiba in Brasileirão | OneFootball

The latest reinforcement presented by São Paulo for the season, the attacking midfielder Cauly is expected to be the big news in the tricolor team's lineup for the 7:30 PM (Brasília time) match this Wednesday (25), against Coritiba, away, in the Brazilian Championship.

At least that's the indication amid the large number of absences from what we can call Hernán Crespo's starting team. Of the initial 11 who defeated Bragantino last weekend, securing a spot in the semifinals of the Paulista Championship, at least three did not travel to the capital of Paraná for the match.

According to the Morumbi club itself, Danielzinho, with a high level of fatigue, along with right-back Lucas Ramon and defender Sabino, will be rested for the game, perhaps already thinking about the decisive classic against rival Palmeiras at the weekend, in the State Championship.

Another absence for Crespo will be Lucca, with pain in the back of his left thigh. Alisson, who has not been participating in matches after the failed negotiation with rival Corinthians, also did not travel to Curitiba (PR). But this time São Paulo informed that the player is recovering from a virus.

With the absence in the central axis of the team, and the expectation that other players who have been frequently playing may be rested to face Palmeiras (such as Lucas), the reinforcement signed from Bahia could be the big news in the starting 11. Cauly has already made his debut for the Tricolor, coming on in the final minutes of the match in Bragança Paulista.

The probable lineup for São Paulo for tonight's match should be Rafael; Maik, Alan Franco, Dória (Arboleda), and Enzo Díaz (Wendel); Pablo Maia, Bobadilla, Marcos Antônio, and Cauly; Tapia (Luciano) and Calleri.

Despite the excitement caused by the news that André Silva has returned to training normally, recovered from the major injury suffered last year, the forward did not travel with the delegation to Curitiba.
