Player to watch – Jonathan Calleri
Jonathan Calleri opened the scoring for Sao Paulo when they cruised to a 3-0 win over Atletico GO in April and the veteran striker is sharp enough in the final third to gobble up another chance against the same opponents on Sunday.
Calleri hitting form
Calleri managed to net twice in his last three appearances for Sao Paulo and he seems to be catching fire in front of goal at a good time for the club. In total, he has registered four times since June 30th and three of those efforts were converted inside his last seven runouts in Serie A.
