Corinthians confirm changes for Coritiba clash as injuries bite | OneFootball

Corinthians have confirmed their line-up to face Coritiba at Couto Pereira on Sunday night in round 24 of the Brasileirão, with changes. According to Meu Timao, Fernando Diniz has shuffled his options.

The starting XI is Kauê, Pedro Milans, Gabriel Paulista, Gustavo Henrique, Fabrizio Angileri, Raniele, Allan, Breno Bidon, André Carrillo, Kaio César, Pedro Raul. Bench: Felipe Longo, João Pedro Tchoca, Memphis Depay, Matheus Pereira, Charles, Hugo Farias, Luiz Gustavo Bahia, Iago Machado, Gui Negão, Dieguinho, Jesse Lingard, Alex Santana.

Fernando Seabra’s Coritiba line up as Pedro Morisco, JP Chermont, Tiago Cóser, Jacy, Bruno Melo, Thiago Santos, Sebas Gómez, Josué, Lavega, Breno Lopes, Pedro Rocha.

Corinthians are without Rodrigo Garro, suspended after a third yellow card. Goalkeeper Hugo Souza and defenders Matheuzinho and Matheus Bidu did not travel for load management and remained in São Paulo.

The medical list is lengthy. André Ramalho remains out with labyrinthitis. André Luiz has a grade 2 right thigh injury, Zakaria Labyad is out for the season with a torn ACL and meniscus in the left knee, Yuri Alberto treats a grade 2 right thigh issue, Vitinho recovers after left knee meniscus surgery, and Kayke will not play again this year due to an ACL rupture in the same knee.

The sides sit back to back in the table, Corinthians ninth with 32 points and Coritiba tenth on 31. A win could lift Corinthians to sixth depending on other results, and would cut the gap to Cruzeiro, fifth on 39, to four points.
