Santos visit Remo on Tuesday at Mangueirão in the Copa do Brasil last-16 second leg, with left-back Escobar and attacking midfielder Neymar Jr one booking from suspension.

According to Diario Do Peixe, a caution in Belém would rule either out of the quarter-final first leg should Santos progress.

Both already have two yellows in the competition. Six team-mates are also on yellow cards, centre-backs Adonis Frías and Luan Peres, full-back Gabriel Menino, midfielders Christian Oliva and Rollheiser, and forward Gabigol. Bookings are cleared only after the quarter-finals conclude.

Santos 0-0 Coritiba saw Neymar Jr and Luan Peres booked. In Coritiba 0-2 Santos the cautions were Adonis Frías, Escobar, Christian Oliva, Gabigol and Gabriel Menino. Santos 0-0 Remo brought yellows for Rollheiser, Escobar and Neymar Jr.

Kick-off is at 21:30. The winner advances to the quarter-finals.
