The Serie A clash at Estádio Aderbal Ramos da Silva on Saturday will see hosts Avaí go into battle with guests Corinthians. Time to bring you the latest player updates and predicted line ups.
Avaí won’t want a repeat of their last result here after the 3-1 Serie A loss in their previous game against América Mineiro. We think that Leão da Ilha could kick off with a 4-3-3 formation in the match, utilising Vladimir, Kevin, Bressan, Arthur Chaves, Bruno Cortez, Raniele, Eduardo Biasi, Jean Pyerre, William Pottker, Guilherme Bissoli and Natanael.
There is just one fitness concern for the Avaí gaffer Eduardo Barroca to be concerned about from of an almost fully healthy group. Jean Pyerre will miss out.
How Avaí might line up vs Corinthians
Corinthians come into this encounter following a 1-0 Serie A win to defeat Botafogo in their last match. From our viewpoint, Timão appear most likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system, settling for Cassio, Rafael Ramos, Bruno Méndez, Fabian Balbuena, Fabio Santos, Fausto Vera, Roni, Giovane, Giuliano, Gustavo Silva and Roger Guedes.
Thanks to a largely available squad, there’s just the sole fitness issue for the Corinthians manager Vítor Pereira to contend with. Paulinho (Ruptured knee ligament) misses out for this game.
