Team Information, Preview, and Santos vs Newell's Old Boys Lineups
Santos
Goalscoring is a major problem for Santos this season, they have only two goals on the record in Copa Sudamericana while they got nine in the same number of rounds in the Brazilian Serie A. The misfiring of the forward line has been an issue that coach Odair Hellman doesn't know how to fix just yet. Lucas Braga and Felipe Jonatan are injured.
Potential lineup: Joao Paulo, Gabriel Inocencio, Messias, Joaquim, Nathan, Alison, Dodi, Soteldo, Lucas Lima, Mendoza, Deivid Washington.
Newell's Old Boys
The Argentine team couldn't replicate their Copa Sudamericana form to the national championship where they are outside the positions that are made for teams to play in South American continental competitions. But, as far as their Copa Sudamericana charge is concerned, they are very well placed to win the top spot and advance directly to the Last 16. Pablo Perez and Fabian Angel won't be able to play because of injuries.
Potential lineup: Hoyos, Mendez, Velazquez, Ortiz, Mansilla, Montenegro, Sforza, Menendez, Portillo, Reasco, Giani.
Player to Watch: Ramiro Sordo
Neither team has someone distinguished enough from the rest to make a huge difference, but for Newell's Old Boys, there is Ramiro Sordo. The young left-wing player has been developing as scheduled ever since he has gone through Newell's academy and moved from the U20 team via the Second Team to the first squad. This season in the league he has played in 18 matches while scoring three goals and with that stat line, he shares the best scorer's record for his club.
Sordo also featured in three Copa Sudamericana games without scoring a goal while assisting on a single occasion. His minutes on the field are limited and that is the prevalent reason why he hasn't been able to increase his goal tally. But, the management will be happy with how fast he is developing which is important for the club.
Starting lineups
