Juventude and Corinthians face each other this Tuesday, in the opening of the 30th round of the Brazilian Championship. The duel takes place at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Alfredo Jaconi stadium, in Caxias do Sul.
In the bottom of the Brasileirão with only 19 points added, Juventude is practically relegated to Serie B. In the return of the competition, the team from Caxias do Sul totaled just three points in ten games. In the last round, he was surpassed by Athletico, at Arena da Baixada.
With just one training session after Umberto Louzer’s departure, the assistant chosen to lead the team, Lucas Zanella, was able to change little. However, the expectation is that he will select a team with the return of left-back Moraes, defender Paulo Miranda and midfielder Chico among the holders. Due to the third yellow card, the commander will not be able to count on goalkeeper Pegorari, who will be replaced by César, and defender Vitor Mendes.
Corinthians will take to the field this Tuesday for the penultimate match before the first final of the Copa do Brasil, scheduled for October 12, at Neo Química Arena, against Flamengo. Therefore, it is possible that coach Vitor Pereira will change the starting lineup, although he has all the players available to those he has been using frequently.
Among the main players, midfielder Maycon and right-back Rafael Ramos, who is about to return after a right thigh injury, did not travel to Caxias do Sul. The Fausto Vera steering wheel is suspended. Cantillo and Roni fight for the spot.
