Team News

Santos FC
Vitoria
  • Santos are down to the bare bones in defence, with three centre-backs out.
  • David Braz is suspended, while both Gustavo Henrique and Luiz Felipe are injured.
  • Yuri, a midfielder by trade, and Fabián Noguera will form a new partnership.
  • José Wellison is expected to start at right-back as Vitória look to quell the threat of Santos down their right flank.
  • That means Euller will start a little further forward down the flank.
  • Rodrigo Ramallo is available after returning from Bolivia duty.

Prediction

  • A gritty win over Ponte Preta last time out allowed Santos to leapfrog Flamengo into second place in Série A.
  • That is reward for their resilience: the Peixe have had plenty of injuries and absences to work around this term, but have coped admirably.
  • Vitória dug deep to see off Atlético-PR before the international pause, but know they are still in need of more points to secure survival.
