Corinthians name starting XI to face São Bernardo away in the Paulistão | OneFootball

Corinthians visits São Bernardo FC this Sunday night (15th) at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) at the Primeiro de Maio Stadium, in a match valid for the eighth and final round of the first phase of the 2026 Paulista Championship. At the moment, the Alvinegro occupies the fifth position on the overall table with 11 points (three wins, two draws, and two losses – nine goals scored and six conceded).

For the match, the Corinthians technical staff is expected to have the following players unavailable: left-back Hugo Farias (knee surgery), midfielders Matheus Pereira (suspended for the third yellow card) and Breno Bidon (muscle injury), as well as forward Kaio César (recovering from a thigh muscle injury). Memphis Depay and Gustavo Henrique also did not accompany the delegation, being rested for the match.

In addition, defender Cacá, who has been speculated in Serie A clubs like Vitória and Santos, might be left out of the squad list. Corinthians will also need to be cautious about the situation of technical staff members and players who are one yellow card away from suspension. If they receive a third yellow card, they could miss the quarter-final match of the state championship – should Alvinegro qualify.

Thus, coach Dorival Júnior has lined up the following team to start the match: Hugo Souza; Pedro Milans, André Ramalho, João Pedro Tchoca, and Matheus Bidu; Charles, Allan, André, and Garro; Vitinho and Gui Negão.

The bench options include: Felipe Longo, Kauê, Matheuzinho, Gabriel Paulista, Yuri Alberto, Raniele, Pedro Raul, Carrilo, Kayke, Bahia, Jacaré, and Dieguinho.
