Corinthians have changed the venue for their match against Mixto in the Brazilian Women’s Championship. The game, scheduled for next Monday (25) at 9 p.m., has been moved from Fazendinha and will now be played at Estádio do Canindé, in São Paulo.
The change was published by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and came after a request from the black-and-white club. The adjustment is part of an internal plan to replace the pitch at Parque São Jorge, which will undergo the installation of winter grass in the coming days.

As a result, this will be the third time this season that the Brabas will play as the home team away from Fazendinha. Previously, the matches against Fluminense and América-MG, also in the Brazilian Women’s Championship, took place at Neo Química Arena.
The venue change comes amid recent discussions involving the condition of Fazendinha’s pitch. Last Tuesday (19), referee Gustavo Holanda Souza recorded criticism in the match report about the state of the field after the Derby between Corinthians and Palmeiras in the Brazilian Under-20 Championship.
In the official match document, the referee reported an accumulation of mud in areas near the sidelines, especially in the region used by assistant referee number one, pointing to “poor conditions” around the field.
The case could lead to developments at the Superior Sports Justice Court (STJD). The Brazilian Code of Sports Justice provides for punishments for home clubs that fail to ensure proper safety and infrastructure conditions for players, referees, and other professionals involved in the matches. The sanctions may range from a fine to a possible closure of the venue.
Fazendinha had already faced structural problems recently. Between 2025 and the start of this season, the stadium was barred from hosting night matches due to failures in the lighting system. After renovations estimated at around R$ 400,000, the venue was cleared again by the São Paulo Football Federation (FPF) at the end of March. As a result, Corinthians will once again host a women’s football match away from Parque São Jorge after more than two months.
