Santos’ next game is in Curitiba, against Atlético, for the Brazilian Championship, but the head will be in Quito, Ecuador, where Peixe faces LDU in the first match of the Libertadores round of 16, on Tuesday.
Since the decision is underway, Santos should probably save some players this Saturday, at 7pm (Brasilia time), in the match valid for the 22nd round of the Brasileirão.
Even with the return of players who were isolated after hiring Covid-19, such as Lucas Veríssimo, Madson, Diego Pituca, Jobson and Jean Mota, the trend is for Peixe to face Atlético with an alternative team.
One possible escalation is the following: Juan Pablo; Pará (Madson), Luiz Felipe, Laércio and Wagner Leonardo; Vinicius Balieiro (Diego Pituca), Ivonei and Lucas Lourenço (Felipe Jonatan); Marinho (Lucas Braga), Kaio Jorge and Soteldo.

The Curitiba match is the last test before the Libertadores playoff begins. Santos clings to positive prospects to try to return to Baixada Santista with good news.
Since Cuca took over the team, Peixe has been a visitor 13 times, winning six, drawing three and losing four. In Libertadores, Santos is 100% out of Brazil this year. The technician will not be on the bench because he is still at rest after being hospitalized on behalf of Covid.
On Sunday, the day after the match against Atlético, Santos’ squad will head directly from Curitiba to Ecuador, where they will have a day of preparation to face LDU.
