Player to watch: Yuri Alberto
Yuri Alberto's numbers for Corinthians in this tournament have been nothing short of impressive. He scored five goals in four starts this season, averaging a goal every 66 minutes.
The former Santos and Zenit St Petersburg player was also on the scoresheet when these teams clashed last month, he has four goals to his name in his last four matches. It'll be interesting to see if Alberto will extend his scoring streak when all is said and done.
