Inter lineup against Botafogo
Coach Roger Machado will have trouble scaling the International. Striker Enner Valencia suffered muscle injury in the thigh in the first half of the defeat to Atletico Nacional by Libertadores and should be out of combat for a month.
Who is also recovering from the injury in the thigh is Borré, with a prediction of return similar to Valencia. Thus, there are only young people to double with Wesley in front. The alternatives are Lucca (22), Ricardo Mathias (18) and Raykkonen (16).
In addition to Valencia and Borré, are also injured carbonarro, Vitinho, Rochet, Lucca Drummond, Bruno Gomes and Gabriel Mercado.
The midfielder Bruno Henrique does not play either, due to a red card against Corinthians.
As he played last Thursday in Colombia and has a “decision” in Libertadores against Nacional-URU, in Montevideo, next Thursday, there is the chance of Inter saving holders against Botafogo.
Probable Inter: Anthoni; Aguirre, Vitão, Victor Gabriel and Bernabei; Ronaldo, Thiago Maia, Bruno Tabata, Oscar Romero and Wesley (Gustavo Prado); Lucca. Technical: Roger Machado.
