Corinthians has one win and one loss in the current edition of the Brasileirão. They have scored three goals and conceded two.
Athletico-PR, meanwhile, has two wins in the league. Furacão has scored three goals and conceded just one.
Coach Dorival Júnior is considering resting some Corinthians players due to the synthetic pitch. He is already without left-back Hugo (right knee surgery), midfielder Breno Bidon (physical transition), and forwards Kaio César (right thigh injury) and Yuri Alberto (left thigh injury). Center-back Cacá, who is in negotiations with Vitória, is another absence.

However, new signings Angileri and Zakaria Labyad are not available. The left-back is undergoing physical reconditioning, while the Moroccan midfielder has not yet been registered.
Athletico-PR, meanwhile, has only one confirmed absence: forward Renan Peixoto, who is recovering from a muscle injury. Coach Odair Hellmann is expected to stick with the same core lineup that beat Santos a week ago.
Hugo Souza; Matheuzinho, Gabriel Paulista, Gustavo Henrique, and Matheus Bidu; Raniele, André (Charles), Matheus Pereira, and Carrillo; Memphis Depay and Gui Negão.
