Speaking from the other side, the Corinthians arrives for the classic with the mission of erasing the bad start to the season. With five defeats and three wins, Timão trusts the coach Antonio Oliveira to maintain the momentum of the last two games. However, the Portuguese and company know that the demands will be very high against their rival. Therefore, the idea is to maintain the lineup to seek the result.
“My relationship with Abel is one of great respect, he is someone who has done an extraordinary job during his time in Brazil, crowned with many titles and has represented in the best way what the Portuguese coach is“, projected the technician Antonio Oliveira at a press conference before the classic.
