Probable lineups

Corinthians will have news against Atlético-MG. The club plans the return of midfielder André Carrillo, sidelined for over two months after surgery on his left ankle. Goalkeeper Hugo Souza and left-back Matheus Bidu are also back available after serving suspensions, as are Romero and Félix Torres, who were with their national teams during the last FIFA window, and José Martínez, who was late to report citing personal issues.

In addition, there is a possibility that the GYM trio (Garro, Yuri Alberto and Memphis Depay) will start and get more minutes together.
