Corinthians and Cruzeiro face each other this Sunday (14), at Neo Química Arena, at 6:00 PM (Brasília time), in the second leg of the Copa do Brasil semifinals.
Since they won the first leg 1-0, Timão only needs a draw to qualify for the final.
Raposa, on the other hand, needs to win by one goal to take it to penalties, or by two or more goals to advance in the tournament.
The winner will face the winner of Fluminense vs Vasco (1 x 2), on December 17 and 21, with the decisive match being played at Maracanã.
Compared to the match at Mineirão, coach Leonardo Jardim has chosen Jonathan, Matheus Henrique, and Sinisterra to replace Villalba, Romero, and Arroyo, respectively, for Cruzeiro.
