For the match, the expected absences are center-backs Agustina and Thais Regina, both in physical transition after a muscle injury and a fracture in the left fibula, respectively, as well as midfielder Juliana Passari, who is recovering from a muscle injury in her right thigh. On the other hand, Alvinegro hopes to have midfielders Ana Vitória (concussion protocol) and Duda Sampaio (load management) back.

The Brabas will hold their final training session on the morning of this Thursday (30) before traveling to Rio Grande do Sul. Throughout history, the two teams have faced each other 12 times, with 11 Corinthians wins and one draw — 33 goals scored and three conceded.
