On Tuesday night, the Corinthians squad landed in the city of Belo Horizonte, where they will face Cruzeiro this Wednesday at 8:00 PM (Brasília time) at Mineirão, in a match valid for the fourth round of the Brazilian Championship. For the match, Dorival Júnior will have three absences.

Due to injuries, Yuri Alberto, Matheus Pereira, and Kai César will be unavailable for the Timão coach. In addition to them, Moroccan Zakaria Labyad, who was introduced on Tuesday morning, will also not be available, as he is still working to reach his best physical condition.

The tendency is for Dorival to make changes to the starting lineup, aiming to preserve the players’ physical integrity given the heavy schedule.

A likely Corinthians lineup for the match is: Hugo Souza; Pedro Milans, Gabriel Paulista, João Pedro Tchoca, and Angileri; Charles, André, Carrillo, and Rodrigo Garro; Vitinho and Gui Negão.

Corinthians comes from two consecutive victories in the Brasileirão and occupies fifth place in the table, with six points. In addition, Dorival Júnior’s team is riding high after qualifying for the semifinals of the Paulista Championship on penalties, against Portuguesa, last Sunday.
