Atletico-PR continued, this Wednesday morning, at the CT do Caju, preparations for the clash against Red Bull Bragantino, in the 26th round of the Brazilian Championship. For the match the team will have to have innovations in the offensive sector, as well as mandatory changes in defense.
After receiving his third yellow card in the classic defeat against Coritiba last Sunday, defender and captain Thiago Heleno will serve an automatic suspension. Therefore, the tendency is for Matheus Felipe or Kaíque Rocha to take the vacant place in the center of defense.
Furthermore, Furacão sees the return of midfielder Vitor Bueno and striker Pablo, suspended in the last match. Both are expected to return to interim coach Wesley Carvalho’s starting lineup, replacing Alex Santana and Willian Bigode respectively.
