Santos line-up: Vojvoda set to spring a surprise against Grêmio | OneFootball

Santos finished their preparation on Tuesday to face Grêmio, for the 26th round of the Brazilian Championship. Coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda conducted a tactical training at CT Rei Pelé and set up the starting lineup. Afterwards, the squad further refined their set pieces.

News

The commander should count on the return of Adonis Frías. The defender was preserved in the 2-2 draw with Red Bull Bragantino last Sunday, due to a discomfort in his right calf.

Another novelty is Escobar. The left back is back after serving a suspension in the last round.

Absences

However, Vojvoda still doesn't have Neymar. The attacking midfielder is recovering from a injury in the right thigh's rectus femoris muscle. He is expected to be sidelined for about one month. Midfielders Gabriel Bontempo and Victor Hugo are also treating muscle injuries.

Probable Santos lineup

Brazão; Mayke, Adonis Frías (Alexis Duarte), Luan Peres and Escobar; Zé Rafael, João Schmidt, Barreal and Rollheiser; Guilherme and Lautaro Díaz.
