Mirassol v Corinthians: where to watch, team news, line-ups, ref | OneFootball

Corinthians return to the pitch on Sunday night at 8:30 p.m. (Brasília time) to face Mirassol in the Brazilian Championship. Timão will take on the team from the interior of São Paulo in a Matchday 14 clash at Campos Maia Stadium in the city of Mirassol.

Since Fernando Diniz took charge, the team has been on a solid run: seven straight matches without defeat, considering fixtures in the Brasileirão, Copa do Brasil, and Libertadores. In addition to the unbeaten streak, the team has also stood out for not conceding any goals during this period.

Despite the recent good form, the situation in the Brazilian Championship still requires attention. Before the 1-0 win over Vasco da Gama in the last round, Corinthians had gone nine matches without a victory in the competition, a run that put them in the relegation zone with 12 points from 12 games.

With the win over the Rio side, the team managed to climb out of the bottom four and moved up to 14th place, now with 15 points. Even so, the margin is minimal: just one point above Santos, who open the relegation zone. That is why another positive result is crucial to gain some breathing room in the standings.

Probable lineup

For this match, head coach Fernando Diniz will have to make changes to the starting lineup due to important absences. Players such as Gustavo Henrique, André Luiz, and André Carrillo are suspended after receiving cards in the last Brasileirão match. Another relevant point is Raniele continuing as an emergency option at right-back, replacing Matheuzinho. The regular starter remains out due to a suspension imposed by the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) following a red card in the derby against Palmeiras.

In addition to the suspended players, the medical department has also taken several options away from the coach. João Pedro Tchoca, Hugo Farias, Charles, Kayke, Memphis Depay, and Vitinho are all out while recovering from injuries. On the other hand, Gui Negão, who went through physical reconditioning during the week, traveled with the squad and could be included in the matchday roster.

Given this scenario, Corinthians’ probable lineup, according to reports, should be: Hugo Souza; Raniele, Gabriel Paulista, André Ramalho and Matheus Bidu; Allan, Matheus Pereira, Breno Bidon and Rodrigo Garro; Jesse Lingard and Yuri Alberto.

Officials

The match will be officiated by Matheus Delgado Candançan, representing the São Paulo Football Federation. He will be assisted by Fabrini Bevilaqua Costa and Miguel Cataneo Ribeiro da Costa. Marcio Henrique de Gois will be in charge of VAR.

Broadcast

For those who want to follow the match, there will be three broadcast options. Record will air the game on free-to-air TV, while Cazé TV will stream it for free on YouTube. Premiere, Grupo Globo’s pay-per-view service, will also make the match available.

Next match

After facing Mirassol, Corinthians will return to action next Wednesday (6) at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), when they travel to Colombia to face Independiente Santa Fé in the fourth round of the Libertadores at El Campín stadium.
