Santos FC team news

Santos approach this match with a clean bill of health and no suspensions, giving manager Cesar Sampaio the rare luxury of selecting from a full-strength squad. Despite their recent poor form - just one win in their last seven league games - Santos will look to key attackers like Benjamín Rollheiser and Alvaro Barreal for inspiration.

The team’s attacking intent remains high, averaging nearly 15 shots per game in recent fixtures, but finishing has been an issue. With no injury or suspension concerns, Sampaio is expected to stick with his preferred 4-2-3-1 formation as Santos seek a turnaround at home.

Ceara team news

Ceará, meanwhile, are dealing with several injury concerns, particularly in defense and midfield. Richardson, Richard, Fernandinho, Bruno Ferreira, Aylon, and Luiz Otávio are all expected to miss out, which could impact their depth and creativity.

Despite these absences, Ceará have managed to maintain a solid defensive record and are likely to continue with a compact 4-3-3 setup, relying on Lucas Mugni’s creativity in midfield and Pedro Raul’s finishing up front. There are no new suspensions for Ceará heading into this fixture.
