Team News

Santos FC
Palmeiras
  • Ricardo Oliveira has shaken off a knock and should start.
  • But Vitor Bueno is struggling with a niggle and will be assessed before the game.
  • If he doesn't make it, Jean Mota will stand in.
  • Goalkeeper Jailson serves a suspension after picking up three yellow cards.
  • That means Vagner will get another chance in goal.
  • Thiago Santos looks likely to get a start in midfield.

Prediction

  • Palmeiras have pulled ahead in the Brasileirão title race, but they face a real test of their abilities against Santos.
  • The Peixe have won seven of their last nine in the league, all but guaranteeing a place in next season's Libertadores.
  • All three meetings between these sides this year have ended in draws, and another tight game could be in store here.
