The missing player for the confrontation is Hernanes. The midfielder suffered a stretch in the back muscle of his right thigh against River and could be out for a month. The recovery period is between three and four weeks.

The departure of the CT cast from Barra Funda to Curitiba, this Saturday, was the object of protest. The fans went to the front of the enclosure to carry the squad, the plate and the coach Fernando Diniz.
