Corinthians pair sidelined for Palmeiras derby | OneFootball

Corinthians will be without goalkeeper Rillary and midfielder Ana Vitória for Thursday night’s Paulista derby against Palmeiras.

The club said Rillary has undergone an elbow infiltration and Ana Vitória has reported muscle discomfort. She was withdrawn last Sunday against Vitória with pain in the back of her left leg.

Rillary has not featured since the 2-1 defeat to São Paulo in May. Corinthians are also without Erika, Andressa Alves and Duda Sampaio, who are on managed workloads, while goalkeeper Lelê remains in physical transition after right hamstring tendinopathy.

Kick-off is at 19:00 at Arena Barueri in the fifth round of the State championship. Both teams have seven points, with Corinthians ahead on goal difference, placing them third and Palmeiras fourth.

The winners will move temporarily into top spot, as Ferroviária and São Paulo currently lead on nine points.
