Corinthians certain to miss duo for Brasileirão clash with Internacional | OneFootball

On Wednesday night (1), Corinthians faced Fluminense at the Maracanã Stadium in a match valid for the ninth round of the 2026 Brazilian Championship, and ended up losing 3-1. Midfielder André Luiz, late in the second half, scored Alvinegro’s goal after a loose ball inside the box.

In addition to the defeat, Corinthians will have two certain absences for the clash against Internacional next Sunday (5), at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Neo Química Arena, for the tenth round of the Brasileirão: left-back Matheus Bidu and defensive midfielder Allan. The first was one booking away from suspension with two yellow cards, and the second, in turn, was shown a yellow card and, shortly after, ended up being sent off.

Matheus Bidu was booked midway through the first half, when he fouled Venezuelan midfielder Savarino. As a result, the left-back was substituted at halftime, making way for Fabrizio Angileri, who should also replace him in this weekend’s match against the team from Rio Grande do Sul.

Midfielder Allan, meanwhile, was shown a red card after a VAR review for making an obscene gesture toward Fluminense midfielder Lucho Acosta. Shortly before that, the number 29 had already been shown a yellow card after clashing with the same opposing player, exchanging slaps while contesting the ball on the right side of the Rio club’s attack.

Corinthians currently, it is worth noting, has the following players in the medical department: left-back Hugo Farias (recovering from knee surgery), as well as forwards Kaio César (perifibrotic inflammation in the thigh), Gui Negão (grade 2 muscle injury), and Memphis Depay (muscle strain).
