Corinthians squad take a break before gearing up for the Majestoso derby | OneFootball

The Corinthians squad had a day of rest this Sunday, amidst the team's preparation for the classic against São Paulo, for the 34th round of the Brazilian Championship. After the break, the athletes will return this Monday to resume work aiming for the Majestic.

Dorival Júnior has three training sessions left until the clash, scheduled for Thursday. The coach is expected to use this period to make the final adjustments to the team.

Reinforced Corinthians

Corinthians has reinforcements for the match. Midfielder André Luiz and forward Vitinho have completed their physical transition period and are available to Dorival's technical team.

There is still anticipation for the return of Hugo Souza. The goalkeeper missed the last two matches due to a trauma in his right thigh. Additionally, midfielders André Carrillo, Charles, and José Martínez, suspended in the last round, are back.

Key Absences

On the other hand, Dorival will have important absences in Corinthians. Midfielder Rodrigo Garro received his third yellow card and will need to serve a suspension. Midfielder Raniele, injured, is also out.
