Corinthians and Sao Paulo will lock horns against each other in the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil as both teams look to pave their way to the final of the tournament.
Corinthians beat America MG in the quarter-finals on penalties in the second leg to earn the ticket to the semi-finals as they'll look to get an early lead in the first leg of the clash.
The Brazilian side enters the contest on the back of a goalless draw against Bahai and will be reluctant to produce a better performance this time out.
While Sao Paulo emerged victorious against Palmeiras as they thrashed them 3-1 in the quarter-finals to march ahead in the knockout stage. Sao Paulo has a better chance of qualifying for the next stage despite a shambolic 2-1 defeat against Cuiaba on the weekend.
