Team News

Coritiba
Palmeiras
  • Wilson and Rhodolfo return here following suspension.
  • Arthur had an okay performance in goal on debut but Wilson is expected to return here.
  • Abel Fereira is opting to use the depths of his squad in the league to concentrate on the Copa do Brasil.
  • Against Fortaleza, he used a mix of fringe players and regular starters, which he is likely to do here.

Prediction

  • Palmeiras put their disappointing Club World Cup display behind them instantly as they destroyed Fortaleza 3-0 last time out, with all goals coming in the first half. In truth, the game was more like a training session for Palmeiras. They will be hoping to continue to build momentum for their Cup final with Gremio at the end of the month.
  • Coritiba's 2-0 loss to Santos on Saturday confirmed that they will be playing in Brazil's second-tier next season. Their main target now is to ensure they don't come bottom of the pile, a victory here for Cortiba would do that.
  • With no real pressure on either side to win both sides can play with freedom which could spark an exciting game.
