The Brasileirão is back in action, and the 15th round kicks off with a thrilling matchup between Coritiba and Internacional at Couto Pereira this Saturday at 4:00 p.m. local time. Both teams have confirmed their starting lineups, setting the stage for what promises to be an intense battle in Curitiba.

Coritiba's coach, Fernando Seabra, faces some key absences, including Maicon (thigh injury), Tiago Cóser, and Thiago Santos (suspended). However, there's good news as center-back Jacy, left-back Bruno Melo, and forward Breno Lopes return to the squad. Lopes will start from the bench, with Lavega taking the starting spot up front. The midfield sees a tactical shift, with Vini Paulista stepping in for the suspended Thiago Santos after last week's 4-1 defeat to Vitória.

Coritiba's starting XI: Pedro Rangel; Tinga, Jacy, Bruno Melo, Felipe Jonatan; Sebastián Gómez, Vini Paulista, Josué; Lucas Ronier, Lavega, Pedro Rocha.

On the other side, Internacional's Paulo Pezzolano has a relatively clean bill of health, with only Paulinho and Mercado sidelined due to right thigh injuries. He makes just one change from the team that secured a 2-0 victory over Fluminense in the previous round: goalkeeper Rochet returns to the starting lineup, with Anthoni dropping to the bench.

Internacional's starting XI: Rochet; Bruno Gomes, Félix Torres, Victor Gabriel, Matheus Bahia; Villagra, Bruno Henrique, Allex, Carbonero, Bernabei; Alerrandro.

With both sides looking to climb the Brasileirão table, expect a high-energy opener. Catch all the action live on Premiere, and gear up for the match with the latest football-inspired apparel to show your support.
