Raposa, on the other hand, has yet to win in the championship and is stuck in second-to-last place with just three points.

Compared to the last match (3 x 2 for Fluminense), coach Odair Hellmann chose to start Aguirre and Dudu in place of Teran and Zapelli, respectively, for Athletico-PR.

Cruzeiro has been without a coach since Tite was dismissed last Sunday (15), an announcement made after the 3 x 3 draw with Vasco.

Permanent assistant coach of the Minas Gerais club, Wesley Carvalho decided to put Japa, Arroyo, and Neyser in the places of Gerson, Matheus Pereira, and Chico da Costa, respectively.
