In eleventh position with 25 points, Timão tries to get away from the teams in the block at the bottom of the table and get closer to the front squad. Botafogo, currently 17th, has 20 points and one game down. Palmeiras, currently sixth, appears at 31 and also has one game down.
Galo, still with only one victory in the last five games, comes to the confrontation loaded by the defeat applied in Flamengo, 4-0, and responsible for the dismissal of Domenec Torrent. A victory over Timão, coupled with a stumbling block from Inter, could give Jorge Sampaoli’s team an advantage.
Corinthians defends the taboo of never having lost to Gallo in Neo Química Arena. In seven games, he won four times. The last main defeat was in 2013, in Pacaembu.

Atlético-MG – Coach: Jorge Sampaoli
Galo has never come so short for a round of the Brasileirão 2020. Coach Sampaoli has limitations in midfield. He lost Jair (injury) and Alan Franco (selection). Midfielder Nathan has doubts, as he had muscle edema, but trained for the week. If he cannot play, the Argentine coach will have to work on the scheme, since he only has Allan and Zaracho to play in the midfield.
In return, the vice president of Brasileirão will promote the debut of the debutant Eduardo Vargas. The attacker will act alongside Sasha and Keno in the attack. In defense, without Junior Alonso, Sampaoli will choose Igor Rabello, who had already started against Flamengo.
Who is out: Junior Alonso (Paraguayan team), Alan Franco (Ecuadorian team), Jefferson Savarino (Venezuelan team), Jair (thigh injury), Mariano (thigh injury), Savinho (under-17 team) and Diego Tardelli (injury to ankle) .
Hanging: Dylan Borrero, Guilherme Arana, Junior Alonso and Savarino.
