The lineup for São Paulo may feature some new faces for the match this Wednesday against Inter at Vila Belmiro, at 8 PM (Brasília time), for the penultimate round of the Brazilian Championship.

Luciano, recovered from a trauma in his right leg, Ferreirinha, recovered from a thigh edema in his left leg, and Arboleda, recovered from a posterior thigh injury in his left leg, trained normally and will be available to coach Hernán Crespo.

Rafael and Sabino, who served a suspension in the last round, are also free to return to the tricolor team.

The São Paulo lineup might include Rafael; Ferraresi, Alan Franco, and Sabino; Maik, Luiz Gustavo, Pablo Maia, Marcos Antônio, and Lucca (Ferreira); Luciano and Tapia.

São Paulo is currently in eighth place in the Brasileirão, with 48 points, and only depends on itself to finish the competition in this position, which could secure a spot in the Pre-Libertadores, should Fluminense or Cruzeiro win the Copa do Brasil.

For this reason, Wednesday's match is seen as a decisive one not only for Internacional, who is fighting to avoid relegation, but also for São Paulo, who still dreams of participating in the Libertadores next season, despite recent performances falling short of expectations.

For the match against Internacional, Crespo continues to deal with ten absences: Calleri (physical transition), Oscar (vasovagal syncope), Lucas (right knee pain), André Silva (right knee injury), Luan (right adductor injury), Wendell (partial rupture of the plantar fascia in the left foot), Rodriguinho (respiratory condition), Enzo Díaz (inguinal hernia surgery), Ryan Francisco (left knee surgery), and Dinenno (physical transition).
