Without Memphis, Corinthians arrive in Chapecó for clash with Chapecoense | OneFootball

The Corinthians landed in Chapecó on Wednesday afternoon, the day before their match against Chapecoense, for the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship. The main news among those called up is the forward Yuri Alberto, who has recovered from a left thigh injury. However, Memphis Depay will be absent for Timão.

The Dutch forward was rested due to the sequence of games and did not even travel with the rest of the group. Defender Gabriel Paulista, midfielder André Carrillo, and forward Kaio César are also unavailable.

Other absences include young goalkeeper Felipe Longo (right elbow ligament strain), left-back Hugo (right knee surgery), and English attacking midfielder Jesse Lingard (awaiting work documentation).

Probable Corinthians lineup

The probable lineup for Corinthians is: Hugo Souza; Matheuzinho (Pedro Milans), André Ramalho, João Pedro Tchoca, and Angileri; Allan, Matheus Pereira, Breno Bidon, and Rodrigo Garro; Vitinho (Gui Negão) and Yuri Alberto.

Corinthians and Chapecoense face off starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Thursday, at Arena Condá.

Timão arrives under pressure for the match. The team drew with Santos in last Sunday's classic at Vila Belmiro, 1-1, and has gone five matches without a win. The team from Parque São Jorge is in eighth place in the Brasileirão, with eight points.
