Corinthians have confirmed their line-up to face Palmeiras in the Brasileirão on Sunday, with kick-off at 18:30 at Neo Química Arena.

According to Meu Timao, Fernando Diniz has selected Hugo Souza, Matheuzinho, Gabriel Paulista, Gustavo Henrique, Matheus Bidu, Raniele, André, Breno Bidon, Rodrigo Garro, Kayke and Yuri Alberto.

The substitutes are Kauê, Vitinho, Pedro Raul, André Carrillo, Matheus Pereira, Allan, Zakaria Labyad, Luiz Gustavo Bahia, Iago Machado, João Vitor 'Jacaré', Dieguinho and Jesse Lingard.

Palmeiras are led by assistant João Martins, who stands in for the suspended Abel Ferreira. They start Carlos Miguel, Giay, Gustavo Gómez, Murilo, Khellven, Marlon Freitas, Andreas Pereira, Allan, Mauricio, Sosa and Flaco López.

Corinthians are managing several absentees, largely medical. Newly sidelined are João Pedro Tchoca, Pedro Milans, Charles and Fabrizio Angileri, while Memphis, Gui Negão, Kaio César and Hugo Farias remain in recovery.

André Ramalho is also out through suspension. Allan and Matheus Bidu return to availability after serving bans against Internacional.

A Libertadores win in midweek ended a run of nine matches without victory. Corinthians are 16th on 10 points and aim to pull away from the relegation zone, while Palmeiras lead on 25.
