Santos line-up: Gabigol cleared to face Flamengo at Maracanã | OneFootball

Gabigol will face Flamengo at the Maracanã on Sunday at 17:30 Brasília time in the 10th round of the Brasileirão. According to Globo.com, the striker trained fully on Saturday and is available to head coach Cuca for Santos.

He missed the win over Remo, but has now completed a second straight unrestricted session and has been cleared to return after an oedema in the left soleus.

Cuca wrapped up preparations with tactical work and set-pieces on Saturday morning. The squad travel to Rio de Janeiro in the afternoon.

Neymar is suspended after his third yellow card on Thursday and stayed inside the CT Rei Pelé for physical recovery, alongside Rony, who is also out.

Gabriel Menino remains out with a right hamstring issue, Mayke is unavailable after corticosteroid treatment less than 20 days ago, and right-back Igor Vinicius has a minor right quadriceps oedema, so Cuca must improvise in that role.

A possible Santos for Sunday features Gabriel Brazão, Adonis Frías or Willian Arão, Lucas Veríssimo, Luan Peres, Escobar, Oliva, Gustavo Henrique, Gabriel Bontempo, Barreal, Gabigol, and Moisés or Thaciano.

Peixe have 10 points and start the round mid-table. After the match in Rio, they will fly straight to Ecuador to open their Sudamericana campaign on the eighth against Deportivo Cuenca.
