Fortaleza vs. Corinthians: Prediction, Team News, Lineups

Fortaleza

Fortaleza will be looking to continue their impressive home form when they host Corinthians in the Brasileiro Serie A on Wednesday. Vojvoda's men have won their last three matches at the Castelão, scoring eight goals in the process. They will be confident of causing Corinthians problems, especially if they can get an early goal.

Fortaleza are likely to be without key midfielder Lucas Lima, who is suspended. However, they have plenty of other attacking options, with Moises, Robson, and Romarinho all capable of causing damage.

Fortaleza predicted lineup: Fernando Miguel; Tinga, Marcelo Benevenuto, Titi, Juninho Capixaba; Lucas Sasha, Matheus Vargas, Romarinho; Moises, Robson, Silvio Romero

Corinthians

Corinthians will be looking to bounce back from their defeat to Flamengo when they travel to Fortaleza. Vitor Pereira's men were well beaten in that match and will need to improve if they want to get anything from this game.

Corinthians are likely to be without injured defender Robson Bambu. However, they have plenty of other options in defence, with Raul Gustavo, Gil, and Fabio Santos all available.

Corinthians predicted lineup: Cassio; Fagner, Raul Gustavo, Gil, Fabio Santos; Du Queiroz, Maycon, Renato Augusto; Adson, Yuri Alberto, Roger Guedes

Prediction

This is a tough match to call, but I think Fortaleza will just edge it. They are in good form at home and have a good record against Corinthians. The visitors will be dangerous, but I think Fortaleza will do enough to win.
