Palmeiras v Corinthians Women: watch, absentees, line-ups, referee | OneFootball

Corinthians will face Palmeiras again this Saturday in another Derby this season, this time for the third round of the Women’s Copa do Brasil. Kickoff is at 11 a.m. at Nubank Parque, marking the Brabas’ debut in the 2026 edition of the national competition.

In last year’s campaign, the black-and-white side advanced to the quarterfinals. Timão knocked out Cruzeiro on penalties and then beat Juventude in regular time before being eliminated by São Paulo.

In addition to their tournament debut, Corinthians are also trying to secure their first win over their rivals in 2026. In the first derby of the year, in the Supercopa do Brasil, the teams drew 1-1 in regular time, but Palmeiras came out on top in the shootout, winning 5-4. In the most recent meeting, for the Brazilian Championship, the Brabas were beaten 3-2 after conceding a comeback.

Probable lineup

As this is a knockout tie decided in a single match, coach Emily Lima is expected to field her strongest available side. Therefore, Corinthians’ likely lineup is: Lelê; Ivana Fuso, Thaís Ferreira, Erika and Tamires (Juliete); Ana Vitória, Duda Sampaio and Andressa Alves; Belén Aquino, Jaqueline and Gabi Zanotti.

Even so, the coaching staff is still dealing with some fitness issues in the squad. Goalkeeper Rillary remains unavailable due to discomfort in her right elbow. Center-back Agustina is still being treated for pain in her left leg, while right-back Gi Fernandes is recovering from a muscle strain in the right gluteal area.

On the other hand, Corinthians reported that center-back Thaís Regina and defensive midfielder Juliana Passari have resumed normal training after time in the medical department. Despite their progress, neither is expected to be included in the squad for the derby.

Refereeing

The match will be officiated by Daiane Muniz. She will be assisted by Leandra Aires Cossette and Veridiana Contiliani Bisco on the sidelines, while Leonardo Delfino de Abreu Lima will serve as the fourth official. The match will not have video review.

Broadcast

The derby will be broadcast exclusively on SporTV, Grupo Globo’s pay-TV channel. After the final whistle, Central do Timão will cover all the reaction from the Derby directly from the stadium.

Next fixture

After the Derby, the Brabas only have one more fixture scheduled for July. Still without confirmation of an exact date, Corinthians will host Ferroviária at Fazendinha in the fourth round of the Paulista Women’s Championship. The tentative date for the match is the week of July 17.
