Corinthians and Internacional set for decisive Copa do Brasil round-of-16 second leg
The second-leg tie between Corinthians and Internacional takes place Thursday at 8 p.m. Brasília time in the Neo Química Arena, with Inter holding a 2-0 first-leg advantage.
In the upcoming Copa do Brasil round-of-16 match, Internacional can afford to lose by a single goal and still progress, while Corinthians must win by three goals to move on. A two-goal victory for the São Paulo side would force a penalty shootout. Coach Paulo Pezzolano made one alteration for Inter, inserting Paulinho for Villagra, and Fernando Diniz swapped Pedro Raul in for Gui Negão at Corinthians.
Why it matters
The result determines which team advances to the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals.
