Internacional v Corinthians Team News

Earlier this week, manager Fabio Carille left his post with 78 games in charge after guiding Corinthians to a Serie A triumph last season before winning his club a Campeonato Paulista title in 2018, as he had told he wanted to try a new challenge elsewhere.

Todo Poderoso are currently contesting three competitions - Copa do Brasil at the last 8, Copa Libertadores edging knock-out stages, and newly resumed Serie A - and although they do not seem to be struggling on any front just yet, playing so much and having such a large injury list could make an impact on their results in the league.

Six rounds into the new season, Corinthians sit third on 11 points courtesy of a W3, D2, L1 form, and they will be given a fine challenge on Saturday when they travel to a side who returned to top-flight football following a 2nd-placed finish in Serie B last term and who hold a nice home record of two wins and a draw from their opening three games at Jose Pinheiro Borda with a 5-0 goal difference.

The Reds have things much worse away from home though, with Internacional sitting in mid-table after earning 8 points, 7 of which have been gained at home, on an overall form W2, D2, L2 so far.
