Thiago Silva and Acosta return as Fluminense face São Paulo | OneFootball

Fluminense released this Thursday the list of players called up for the match against São Paulo, which will take place this Thursday (27th), at 8:30 PM, at Maracanã, for the 36th round of the 2025 Brasileirão.

Among the highlights are the returns of important starters who were absent in the last round: Lucho Acosta, Thiago Silva, and Renê. Midfielder Paulo Henrique Ganso also returns to the squad.

Luis Zubeldía’s team is seeking victory to stay strong in the fight for a direct spot in the 2026 Libertadores. With 55 points, Flu is in 7th place and a draw guarantees the Tricolor at least a spot in the Pre-Libertadores. São Paulo is right behind, in 8th place with 48 points.

Full squad for Fluminense vs São Paulo

• Goalkeepers: Fábio, Gustavo Félix, and Marcelo Pitaluga

• Full-backs: Samuel Xavier, Renê, and Guga

• Center-backs: Thiago Silva, Ignácio, Thiago Santos, and Freytes

• Midfielders/defensive midfielders: Martinelli, Hércules, Bernal, Nonato, Ganso, Lima, and Lucho Acosta

• Forwards: Canobbio, Serna, John Kennedy, Soteldo, Riquelme, Everaldo, and Keno

The likely starting lineup for the Rio club should be at full strength, with Lucho and Thiago Silva returning as starters after being absent as a precaution in the previous match.
