Our read before the game

Home and head to head favour Fluminense, but Libertadores rotation and Neymar's return make this nervy.

Fluminense have won five of the last ten meetings and four of their last five at home, but Arana is suspended and a Libertadores semi final leg looms three days later. Santos arrive in form away from home and with Neymar back, making the home win far less certain than the record implies.

Fluminense team news
  • Guilherme Arana: suspended (third yellow card)
Santos team news
  • Willian Arao: suspended (accumulated yellows), also carrying a thigh issue
  • Lima: barred from playing by his loan agreement with parent club Fluminense
  • Arthur: thigh muscle injury
  • Gabriel Brazao: out, recovering from shoulder surgery
  • Vini Lira: out, knee ligament injury
