Athletico may have important returns to face the Londrina, this Sunday (10), at 6:30 p.m., at the Ligga Arena, for the duel back of the quarterfinals of the Paranaense Championship. The left-side Fernando and the steering wheel Alex Santana recovered from injury and trained with the cast during the week. Coach Cuca will make his debut by the lawn.
Soon in his first lineup, Cuca should already promote changes in the Athletic. Unlike his predecessors in the position, the coach must choose a scheme with four defenders. Without Thiago Heleno, injured, the Hurricane will have Kaique Rocha and Gamarra forming the zaga duo. On the sides, Leo Godoy and Vinicius Kauê are the main quotes to begin. Still out of play rhythm, Fernando will start at the bank. Esquivel is still recovering from a pubalgia.
In the midfield, the trend is that Fernandinho, Erick and Felipinho form the trio in the sector, with Zapelli further ahead as the playmaker. Another possibility is the exit of one of the midfielders to the entrance of another attacker. Recovered from a knee problem, Alex Santana will be an option throughout the match.
Athletic's attack
In the attack, Cuello and Di Yorio must play a vacancy among the related, due to the limit of foreigners by departure in Paranaense. The tendency is that Canobbio doubles with Mastriani, with Zapelli alternating between the middle and the tip. If Cuca gives up a midfielder, Julimar also appears as a possibility in a trio of attackers. So a likely Athletico has: Benedict; Leo Godoy, Kaique Rocha, Gamarra and Vinicius Kauê; Fernandinho, Erick, Felipinho (Julimar) and Zapelli; Canobbio and Mastriani.
