Fortaleza v Palmeiras: how to watch, kick-off time and probable line-ups | OneFootball

Fortaleza face Palmeiras in the Copa do Brasil last 16 second leg at 21:30 Brasília time on Wednesday at Arena Pantanal, with the visitors 3-0 up from the first game.

As reported by Globo.com, the tie is being played in Cuiabá after Fortaleza sold home advantage for R$ 2.2 million. The match is live on Globo, Premiere, sportv and Amazon Prime.

Fortaleza must win by three to force penalties. Paulo Autuori is likely to tweak his XI, with Ronald expected to miss out with a hamstring issue and Luiz Fernando a doubt with a knee problem, while Pedro Henrique is suspended and Lucca Prior is sidelined.

Probable Fortaleza XI: João Ricardo in goal, Mucuri, Neris, Lucas Gazal and Fuentes in defence, Rodrigo, Lucas Sasha and Pierre in midfield, Vitinho, Welliton and Nathan Fogaça in attack.

With a cushion, Palmeiras could rotate. Gustavo Gómez and Paulinho remain out with thigh injuries, Bruno Fuchs and Jefté are recovering from surgery, Khellven is also unavailable, and Barboza was rested and did not travel, while regulars such as Marlon Freitas and Andreas Pereira could be given a breather.

Probable Palmeiras XI: Carlos Miguel in goal, Giay, Murilo, Benedetti and Piquerez at the back, Emiliano Martínez, Lucas Evangelista and Mauricio in midfield, Allan, Arias and Flaco López or Sosa up front. The squad travelled on Tuesday, chasing a R$ 4 million prize for progression, and they lead the Brasileiro with 47 points while also in the Libertadores last 16.
