Abel Ferreira has Vitor Roque back - he was out for personal reasons - and Micael, who has recovered from an injury.
Paulinho is also back after being preserved to carry out an individual physical preparation schedule.
Ceará ⚫⚪

The mission will be to win again as a visitor outside their state.
There have been three defeats and two draws in the last five games.
