Team News

Santos FC
America MG
  • Dorival Júnior should name his strongest available side this weekend.
  • Yuri will continue at the back in the absence of Gustavo Henrique and Luiz Felipe.
  • Thiago Maia missed training earlier in the week but should be OK to start.
  • Utility man Ernandes serves a suspension on Sunday.
  • A number of senior players have been released with their contracts coming to an end.
  • That means a few youngsters will earn starts.

Prediction

  • With their place in next season's Libertadores already secure, Santos are already planning for 2017.
  • They look well placed to kick on and are looking at a few big-name additions: Robinho is their prime target at the moment.
  • América are also preparing for challenges to come, although their relegation to Série B will likely involve more cost-cutting than spending.
