  "account": "Pressure is mounting as Coritiba and Botafogo name their teams for their upcoming match in the Brasileirão. The game is scheduled for 4 p.m. (Brasília time) on Wednesday, December 12. This match is part of Matchday 30 of the season and involves two teams currently struggling in the league.\n\nMatheus Delgado Candançan of Amazon Prime will referee the match. Coxa, celebrating their 117th anniversary today, have only scored one of the last 12 points available and have conceded a total of fourteen goals over that span. They currently sit in tenth place with 38 points. To improve their home form, which ranks 16th, Coxa will need to focus on their performance at Couto Pereira stadium.\n\nGlorioso have won just one of their last seven matches and sit 13th with 35 points, with the relegation zone closing in on them. Meanwhile, Coritiba will be without Bruno Melo, who is suspended, but Pedro Morisco and Lavega are available for selection. Coxa's goalkeeper had been rested after playing for Brazil, but he is ineligible to face Fluminense. Jacy, who was a doubt, is confirmed to start alongside Thiago Cóser for Botafogo.\n\nTite is suspended from Botafogo's bench, and Lucas Monzón is recovering from calf pain. Arthur Chaves, on the other hand, suffered bruising to his iliac bone and abdomen. Marçal will play at centre-back for Glorioso, while Montoro starts on the bench after missing the match against Vasco.",
