On the morning of this Sunday (22), Corinthians concluded their preparations for the fourth round of the first phase of the 2026 Brazilian Women's Championship. On the night of this Monday (23), at 9 PM (Brasília time), the Brabas will host América-MG at the Neo Química Arena. Currently, the Corinthians team is in the tenth position – outside the playoff qualification zone – on the table with four points – five goals scored and five conceded.
The Corinthians women's squad started the day with a traditional workout in the gym. Then, they moved to the field, where coach Emily Lima made adjustments to set-piece plays, thus concluding the preparatory period for the match. The Brabas' coach made her debut leading the team on the 13th, in a 3-2 comeback defeat to Palmeiras at Arena Barueri, during the third round of the national competition.

In the first two rounds, still under coach Lucas Piccinato, the club from Parque São Jorge defeated Atlético-MG at Arena MRV, 1-0. Subsequently, playing at the Neo Química Arena, they ended up with a 2-2 draw against Fluminense. After the match, there was a change in the Brabas' technical command.
The Corinthians women's team has almost perfect numbers playing at the Neo Química Arena. In total, there are 27 wins and three draws in Itaquera. Additionally, they have scored 76 goals and conceded only 18, representing a 93.3% success rate. Throughout history, Alvinegro has faced América-MG three times, winning all three games – all in the Brazilian Championship of the category.
In 2016, at Estádio José Liberatti, Osasco, they triumphed 3-0. Later, the two teams met again only in 2024, at Fazendinha, when the Brabas won 4-1. Finally, last year, at Arena do Jacaré in Minas, they secured a 1-0 victory. A win on Monday night could potentially place the team as high as fourth position, depending on the goal difference of the victory.
