📰 Team News: Vitoria

We think that Leão da Barra could kick off with a 4-3-3 formation this time and select Lucas Arcanjo, Claudinho, Edu, Zé Marcos, Jamerson, Gabriel Baralhas, Ronald, Matheuzinho, Lucas Braga, Renato Kayzer and Wellington Rato.

🗞️ Team News: Cruzeiro

Cruzeiro manager Leonardo Jardim has to contend with a number of unavailable players. João Marcelo (Torn knee ligaments), Matheus Henrique (Meniscus injury) and Japa (Inflammation of the biceps tendon in the thigh) can’t be considered.

We’re of the thinking that Celeste could decide to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system, starting the game with Cassio, William, Fabrício Bruno, Jonathan Jesus, Kaiki, Lucas Romero, Lucas Silva, Carlos Eduardo, Matheus Pereira, Wanderson and Kaio Jorge.

💡 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Vitoria will really need to work well to hit the back of the net against this Cruzeiro team who will likely win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.

We’re therefore seeing a hard-fought 0-1 winning margin for Cruzeiro at the end of this one.

It should be a good one.
