Team News

Corinthians
Sao Paulo
  • Douglas and Ángel Romero should be available after shaking off knocks.
  • Youngster Carlos Augusto is expected to get the nod at left-back.
  • That means Danilo Avelar will be on the bench.
  • Jean, Hudson and Everton are all expected to return to the side here.
  • The first two were suspended against Flamengo last weekend and the latter has been injured.
  • Midfielder Luan looks set for a couple of weeks out with an ankle issue.

Prediction

  • It's clássico day in Brazil's biggest city, with Corinthians and São Paulo facing off in the latest edition of O Majestoso – the majestic derby.
  • Corinthians have more to play for than their visitors this weekend: they'll want some more distance between them and the relegation zone to make the final weeks of the season more relaxed.
  • For the Tricolor, who are safe in the Libertadores but unlikely to overhaul the league leaders, bragging rights will be foremost.
