Corinthians have confirmed their line-up to face Chapecoense as they bid to halt a run of three league defeats. This is as reported by Meu Timao. Kick-off is 19:30 at Neo Química Arena in the 26th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.

Fernando Diniz starts Kauê, Matheuzinho, João Pedro Tchoca, Gustavo Henrique, Matheus Bidu, André Carrillo, Allan, Breno Bidon, Rodrigo Garro, Kaio César and Memphis Depay.

The bench features Felipe Longo, Pedro Raul, Pedro Milans, Matheus Pereira, Angileri, Charles, Hugo Farias, Iago Machado, Gui Negão, Dieguinho, Jesse Lingard and Alex Santana.

Rafael Lacerda names Chapecoense as Anderson, Kauan Faria, Eduardo Doma, Heitor, Fernando, Camilo, Yago Felipe, Giovanni Augusto, Garcez, Marcinho and Túlio Eduardo.

Hugo Souza, Gabriel Paulista and Raniele are suspended due to yellow-card accumulation.

Corinthians also have a lengthy injury list: André Ramalho is not yet cleared after labyrinthitis, André Luiz has a grade 2 left hamstring problem, and Zakaria Labyad has a left ACL and meniscus injury that ends his season. Vitinho is in physical transition after meniscus surgery, Kayke has a left ACL tear and is expected back in 2027, and leading scorer Yuri Alberto, on eight goals, remains out with thigh discomfort late in his grade 2 rehab.

Breno Bidon returns from suspension, André Carrillo is available after load management, and Jesse Lingard has recovered from a viral flu. Corinthians have lost to Cruzeiro, Coritiba and Santos, dropping from seventh to 11th on 32 points, and victory could lift them to 10th.
