Team News

Gremio
Corinthians
  • Vanderson and Thiago Santos return from suspension after missing the last league match.
  • Douglas Costa was a bright spark in midweek for half an hour but picked up another muscle injury and will be unavailable here.
  • Fagner picked up a calf injury last week and is a doubt here. 21-year-old Du Queiroz is likely to replace him if needed.
  • Corinthians are working to bring in Willian and Roger Guedes to give them a boost in attack. Guedes has already said goodbye to his Shandong Taishan teammates.

Prediction

  • Gremio have enjoyed victory in their last two league games following last weekend 2-0 home win over Bahia. In the cup, however, they were left disappointed in a 4-0 battering by Flamengo on Wednesday. Gremio fans will be hoping for a positive reaction from the players after such a heavy defeat to a side that played the second half with 10-men.
  • Corinthians are unbeaten in their last three matches and have won their last two, as they continue an upturn in form. Last weekend a second half goal from Roni was enough to ensure three points for Corinthians. Timão currently sit sixth in the league table and will be hoping for another positive result here.
