Corinthians lineup: without Jô and Boselli, Timão prepares for the match with América-MG | corinthians

Absences in the game on Saturday, the strikers Boselli and Jô did not participate in the activity. The Argentine deals with pain in the lower back, while the second continues to treat a muscle contracture in the right calf. The two worked within the CT.

Boselli, in fact, used social networks to explain his absence:

-I have low back pain, I try to recover to be available to the coach as soon as possible- wrote the center forward.

The one who participated in training with the ball and must remain in the starting lineup is Davo. Author of Timão’s winning goal in the Neo Química Arena match, the 21-year-old forward has everything to stay among 11.

For the match, coach Vagner Mancini will not have Otero, Fábio Santos and Gustavo Mosquito, players who have played in the Brazil Cup with other teams.

Lucas Piton thus retakes the left side. In the role of open left man, Léo Natel, Mateus Vital and Everaldo are the options.

A probable Corinthians has Cássio, Fagner, Marllon, Gil and Lucas Piton; Xavier and Éderson; Ramiro, Cazares, Davo and Léo Natel (Mateus Vital or Everaldo).

Defeated 1-0 in São Paulo, Timão needs to win by two goals to stay in the quarterfinals. The victory by goal leads the decision to penalties.

While awaiting the arrival of Jemerson, reinforcement of France’s Monaco, Mancini won another option for the defense on Monday. Defender Raúl Gustavo, 21, recovered from an injury to his posterior thigh muscle.

– I am very happy and motivated, because I no longer feel any pain. Now, I will work hard to be able to play again and help Corinthians, which is the most important thing.

The player, it should be remembered, was sanctioned for ten games by the STJD for an attack on goalkeeper Hugo, from Flamengo, in the Brazilian Under-20 Championship last year. However, as he approached the end of the suspension, he suffered an injury in training and ended up losing his last matches.
