📋 Inter line-up to escape the drop zone, São Paulo eyeing G-8 spot

At Vila Belmiro, São Paulo and Internacional face off this Wednesday (3), at 8:00 PM (Brasília time), for the 37th round of the Brasileirão.

The Tricolor Paulista occupies eighth place with 48 points and needs a win to keep dreaming of the G-8 and, thus, snatch a spot in the qualifying rounds of the 2026 Conmebol Libertadores.

For this to happen, Cruzeiro or Fluminense need to win the Copa do Brasil and finish in the G-5 of the Brasileirão.

Raposa faces Corinthians in the semifinals of the tournament, while Tricolor Carioca plays a derby against Vasco.

Colorado, meanwhile, languishes in 17th place with 41 points and needs a win to finally try to escape the Z-4.

Compared to the last game (5-1 for Vasco), coach Abel Braga—who is making his return to the helm of the Gaucho team—has chosen to start Juninho in place of Carbonero for Internacional.

Meanwhile, at São Paulo, coming off a shameful 6-0 loss to Fluminense, coach Hernán Crespo chose to put Rafael, Sabino, Rafael Toloi, Ferreirinha, and Luciano in the places of Young, Pablo Maia, Ferraresi, Lucca, and Rigoni, respectively.
