Corinthians will wrap up preparations for the match against Internacional next Tuesday at the Joaquim Grava training center. The team will then travel to Porto Alegre, where they will face Colorado on Wednesday. Coach Fernando Diniz used the international break to help his players recover and work on the team's tactics.
The coach will welcome back Yuri Alberto, who suffered an injury in late July and has not played for the team since. He will also welcome back the trio of Hugo Souza, Mahteuzinho and Breno Bidon, who represented Brazil. The three players arrive in São Paulo on Monday afternoon.
However, they will not report back until Tuesday. The trio will be reassessed by Timão's medical department before rejoining the squad. Fernando Diniz is expected to start all three players at Beira-Rio.
André Carrillo, however, is out of the match. The Peruvian is with his national team in Miami, in the United States. Mano Menezes's side will not face Colombia until Tuesday at 8:45 p.m. Carrillo will only return to Brazil on Wednesday and will not have time to rejoin the team for the match against Internacional.
It is worth noting that the player joined the Peruvian national team with muscle swelling in his left thigh. He played 45 minutes in the 2–0 defeat to Canada last Saturday and is expected to feature again under Mano Menezes against Colombia.
Internacional and Corinthians face off in a crucial match in the Brazilian league. Both are in the bottom half of the table and see the battle against relegation as a reality. The side from Rio Grande do Sul sits in 18th place with 28 points, while Timão is 14th with 32 points. Corinthians have now lost six consecutive games in the Brasileirão.
