To start the match, coach Mano Menezes, who had three spells at Corinthians (2008 to mid-2010 / 2014 and mid-2023 to early 2024) and won three titles (Serie B, Campeonato Paulista, and Copa do Brasil), sent Peru out with the following lineup: Pedro Gallese; Marcos López, Alfonso Barco, Miguel Araújo, Oliver Sonne; Jesús Castillo, Jairo Vélez, Yoshimar Yotín, André Jairo Concha; João Grimaldo and Álex Valera.

André Carrillo was signed by Corinthians in the mid-2024 transfer window. At the time, he established himself among the starters and was key to the team’s surge in that year’s Brasileirão (from the relegation zone to the Libertadores qualifying stage), in addition to being part of the title-winning squads in the Campeonato Paulista (2025), Copa do Brasil (2025), and Supercopa do Brasil (2026), against Palmeiras, Vasco da Gama, and Flamengo, respectively.

Overall, he has three goals and five assists in 84 matches (56 as a starter) wearing the Corinthians shirt — 43 wins, 20 draws, and 21 losses — a 59.13% success rate. His contract with Alvinegro runs until December 2026. In fact, due to the short turnaround after the second match of the FIFA international break, he will be unavailable for Corinthians in the match against Fluminense next Wednesday (1) at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at the Maracanã, in the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship.
