RB Bragantino preview: Hoping to take the advantage of playing at home
After three games without a win in all competitions, Bragantino have ended this streak by beating Athletico Paranaense in their previous match in Serie A. Overall, they have been inconsistent this season, but after a draw in the first leg with Barcelona, they have a good chance to reach the Round of 16 in Copa Sudamericana with a win at home.
Nathan Camargo, Jadsom, and Talisson have missed the first leg with injuries and they are questionable for the rematch too.
Predicted lineup: Cleiton (GK), Mendes, Henrique, Santos, Candido, Lincoln, Fernandes, Evangelista, Helinho, Sasha & Mosquera
