Santos is set for the upcoming match against Internacional, valid for the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship. Under pressure in his role, coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda has made three changes to the Santos team, especially in the defensive system, with the return of the four-defender line.

Santos and Internacional face off this Wednesday night, starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Vila Belmiro.

Modified Santos

Vojvoda has strategically altered Santos' defensive system. The coach abandoned the three-defender formation and opted for the return of the four-defender line, with Igor Vinícius and Escobar as full-backs, and the central defense duo Zé Ivaldo and Adonis Frías. Veríssimo remains an option on the bench.

Another novelty is the inclusion of Willian Arão in the midfield. Finally, Robinho Jr. and Miguelito return to the bench. Both were absent from the derby against Corinthians last Sunday.

Santos' lineup includes: Brazão; Igor Vinícius, Adonis Frías, Zé Ivaldo, and Escobar; Arão, Oliva, and Neymar; Barreal, Rony, and Gabigol.

Inter lineup

On the other side, coach Paulo Pezzolano has made a forced change in Internacional's midfield. Paulinho, suspended, is replaced by Bruno Henrique. The coach also made more changes, such as the inclusion of Félix Torres in defense and an attack formed by Vitinho, Alerrandro, and Borré.

Internacional takes the field with: Rochet; Bruno Gomes, Félix Torres, Victor Gabriel, and Matheus Bahia; Bruno Henrique, Villagra, and Alan Rodríguez; Vitinho, Alerrandro, and Borré.
