Promotion officials confirmed the pairing to Sherdog.com on Tuesday, along with two other bouts set for the preliminary draw: Johnny Eblen vs. Daniel Madrid at middleweight and Weber Almeida vs. Johnny Soto at featherweight.

Bellator 258 takes place on May 7 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., and is headlined by a bantamweight title tilt between Juan Archuleta and Sergio Pettis. The card will air on Showtime.

Corrales snapped a two-bout skid with a split-decision triumph over Brandon Girtz at Bellator 250 this past October. The former King of the Cage champion is 6-5 during his tenure with the California-based organization.

After besting Shawn Bunch and Vinicius Zani in his first two promotional appearances, Lee dropped a unanimous verdict against Raufeon Stots at Bellator 253 on Nov. 19. The 24-year-old Extreme Couture representative is 7-4 as a professional.

Anchored at American Top Team, the 29-year-old Eblen is unbeaten in his first seven professional outings, including a trio of victories under the Bellator MMA banner. Most recently, Eblen outpointed Taylor Johnson at Bellator 250 on Oct. 29.

The 36-year-old Madrid enters that matchup with Eblen on a five-bout winning streak. He was victorious in his promotional debut, earning a unanimous verdict over Pat Casey at Bellator 246. Madrid has compiled an 18-6 professional mark while competing in organizations such as Legacy Fighting Alliance, M-1 Global and King of the Cage.

A protege of Lyoto Machida, Almeida has finished all five of his professional opponents by knockout or technical knockout. In his last outing, Almeida dispatched Salim Mukhidinov via first-round TKO at Bellator 244.

Soto, meanwhile, has won three consecutive bouts on the California regional scene after losing his pro debut.
