With seven points, Inter will face Linense away from home, on Sunday (17), at 18h.

To face Linense, coach Waguinho Dias must promote only one change in relation to the team that started in the 3-0 victory against São Paulo-RS. The tough steering wheel returns after fulfilling automatic suspension and enters Felipe Merlo's spot. The team arrived in Lins on Friday (15), where they performed a tactical training in the late afternoon, already on Saturday, Waguinho Dias emphasized the rehearsed plays.

Internacional's hope for goals lies at the feet of striker Gustavo, who scored a goal after 18 seconds of play in the last round. With seven balls in the net in 2020, the team's top scorer hopes to maintain a good phase and believes that Colorado gets the classification. “It is always good for the attacker to be scoring, so these numbers only make me more motivated to grow and work even more. It is important to be able to help my team. We are on the right way. I do believe that we will qualify and thus seek access, which is the club's main objective ”.
