Corinthians are on a run of back-to-back victories and have lost just one of their last seven games across all competitions. They are undefeated in their last six games on home turf and will be looking forward to Tuesday's outing.
Racing, meanwhile, saw their latest result end a run of back-to-back victories and they will be looking to bounce back here. They have, however, had mixed results on the road of late and could see defeat this week.
