*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Corinthians are 8/15 favourites to win Thursday’s quarter-final, though the hosts have work to do to succeed in the second-leg. They trail Juventude 2-1 from the first-leg, though their run of ten games without defeat at home suggests they might have the edge.
Juventude meanwhile – who are considerable underdogs at 11/2 – have gone six games on the road without tasting victory and their travel sickness could scupper their chances of making the last four of the Copa do Brazil this week.

Player to watch – Rodrigo Garro
Attacking midfielder Rodrigo Garro swapped Talleres in his Argentinean homeland for a new adventure in Brazil with Corinthians this year and the 26-year-old is already a firm favourite with Timao supporters.
Garro a contender in two markets
Garro is an all-action performer and alongside chipping in with six goal involvements in the league this term, the midfielder has also picked up seven bookings. Garro is likely to be central to the skirmish again in Thursday’s cup tie.
