Coach Tite and his assistants led a tactical drill to determine the starting eleven for Wednesday's match. It's worth noting that Bruno Henrique, Filipe Luís, and Thiago Maia are suspended for their third yellow card.

In the last round of the Brasileirão, Mais Querido beat Fortaleza 2-0, with goals from Pedro, who scored his 101st with the Sacred Mantle, and Luiz Araújo.
