Atlético get Saravia back, but lose four to suspension vs Juventude | OneFootball

Atlético will have an important new addition for Tuesday's (30) match against Juventude at the MRV Arena, for the 26th round of the Brazilian Championship. Cleared by the medical department, right-back Saravia participated normally in Sunday's and Monday's (29) training sessions with the rest of the squad and is available for the technical committee.

The last time the Argentine was on the field was in the 1-0 defeat to Flamengo on August 6, for the Brazil Cup. This season, Saravia has played 18 games and 717 minutes. According to influencer Lucas Tanaka, the player will be selected by coach Jorge Sampaoli for the match against the team from Rio Grande do Sul.

While Sampaoli gains an option for the right-back position, he will have significant absences. Goalkeeper Everson, left-back Guilherme Arana, defender Junior Alonso, and striker Hulk are suspended and will not be available for the match against Juventude.

In addition to the suspended players, the coach is not expected to have Junior Santos available. The striker was reassessed yesterday by the medical department after complaining of pain in the right hip area. According to the club, the player will undergo additional imaging tests on Monday.
