Vitória 🦁

Leão started the round in 10th place with 14 points from 10 matches — the fourth-round clash with Botafogo was postponed.

The bet is on home advantage, as the team has picked up 12 points in front of its fans.

Jair Ventura will go back to using his strongest lineup after resting players in the Lampions.

Cacá belongs to tonight’s opponent, but a financial agreement was reached and he will play. 

The injury list remains long: Mateus Silva, Jamerson, Neris, Camutanga, Edu, Rúben Ismael, Dudu and Fabri.

Meanwhile,  Claudinho, Riccieli, Marinho and Pedro Henrique are in transition.

Corinthians 🦅

Timão started Saturday in 16th place with 11 points.

They are now eight Brasileirão matches without a win.

The team’s edge lies in the good results since Fernando Diniz arrived.

There have been two Libertadores wins and a draw against Palmeiras despite having only nine men on the field.

Matheuzinho and André are suspended after being sent off in the derby — the full-back will also miss three more matches.

Hugo Souza, meanwhile, was suspended by the STJD for comments made after the match.

Timão requested a stay of suspension and succeeded. He will start. 

Memphis, Charles and Gui Negão are still recovering from injuries.
