📋 Santos named to chase 1st Sula win and move off the bottom | OneFootball

Santos take the field this Tuesday (5) at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), when they face Recoleta in Paraguay in the fourth round of the 2026 Conmebol Sudamericana group stage.

Peixe are bottom of Group D with two points and need a win if they want to keep any chance of qualifying alive.

The Paraguayans have three points, behind Deportivo Cuenca (four points) and San Lorenzo (five points), who play at 11 p.m. (Brasília time).

Compared to the last match (a 1-1 draw with Palmeiras in the Brasileirão), coach Cuca opted to bring in João Ananias and Neymar in place of Luan Peres and Barreal, respectively, for Santos.

In the Sudamericana, only the group leader advances directly to the round of 16.

The team that finishes second must play a playoff against a team eliminated from the Libertadores.
