Corinthians' injury woes continue to mount ahead of the crucial Brasileirão clash against Fluminense. Gabriel Paulista is doubtful due to injury and may be replaced by João Pedro Tchoca in the Corinthians defense. This is a significant blow for the hosts, who are already without Yuri Alberto, Zakaria Labyad, and Kayke due to injury.
Fluminense, on the other hand, arrive at the match in high spirits after advancing to the semifinals of the Conmebol Libertadores. However, they will be looking to bounce back from their loss to Atlético-MG in the previous round, which ended their nine-game unbeaten run. Fluminense currently sit in fifth place in the Brasileirão with 45 points.
Corinthians' coach Fernando Diniz will be looking to make the most of his squad's home advantage, but the hosts will need to be at their best to overcome the challenges posed by Fluminense. The match is set to be a closely contested affair, with both teams eager to secure a crucial three points.
The match will be broadcast live on TV Globo and Premiere, with the action kicking off at 16:00 (Brasília time) at the Neo Química Arena.
