Santos – Cruzeiro preview: Latest form, team news, and possible lineups:
Read about the latest information on both teams right here, including the most likely Santos vs Cruzeiro lineups:
Santos
It has been a tough season for Santos in Serie A so far since the team is currently sitting in the relegation zone, with just 21 point from 22 games. They only managed to win five games so far, four of which they won at home, so their struggles away from home are pretty obvious. Meanwhile, Santos is injured Sandry and Alison, while Yeferson Soteldo has to serve a suspension.
Santos predicted lineup:
Paulo – Joaquim, Basso, Alex, Dodo – Rincon, Fernandez, Lima, Lucas, Mendoza – Leonardo
Cruzeiro
It's been a while since Cruzeiro last won a game in Serie A – eight rounds to be exact. Despite that, Cruzeiro remains five points clear of the relegation zone for now, but they need to find a way to win a match soon if they want to stay away from it. Matheus Pereira, Ramiro, Rafael Bilu, and Wesley Gasolina are on the team's injury list at the moment.
Cruzeiro predicted lineup:
Cabral – Marion, Castan, Neris, William – Vital, Silva, Jussa – Rodrigues, Gomes, Papagaio
