Corinthians host São Paulo with eight absentees for the Majestoso | OneFootball

Corinthians host São Paulo on Sunday at 18:30 in the 15th round at Neo Química Arena, and will be without eight players.

According to Meu Timao, most absences are medical, with Kayke recovering from a left knee ACL rupture, Vitinho still troubled by hip pain, João Pedro Tchoca following inguinal hernia surgery this week, Charles nursing a right heel injury, and Hugo Farias rehabbing after right knee meniscus reconstruction.

Memphis Depay has not played for more than a month due to a grade two right thigh injury. He has been in transition work but was not cleared for the Majestoso, and the new projection is a return against Barra in the Copa do Brasil on Wednesday.

Allan is suspended after his third yellow card against Mirassol, while André Luiz serves a second game under an STJD penalty following his red card versus Vasco. Fernando Diniz can recall Matheuzinho after a four-match STJD ban, plus Gustavo Henrique and André Carrillo after one-match bans for accumulation.

Hugo Souza, Gabriel Paulista, Fabrizio Angileri and Rodrigo Garro are one booking from suspension and could miss the next round away to Botafogo in Rio de Janeiro if cautioned. After a 2-1 loss to Mirassol, Corinthians sit 17th with 15 points from 14 matches, so victory would offer a route out of the relegation zone.
