What They're Saying

Cruzeiro manager Marcelo Oliveira (via Brasil247): "This result [against Atletico Mineiro] was justified. Atletico suffocated us and controlled the tempo. Plus, they played at a higher level. Cruzeiro didn't play how they normally play. We were a little conservative and didn't have attacking play. We didn't play like a team, we didn't have technique and we didn't play together."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Santos FC's Lucas Lima has been instrumental in 30 league appearances this season. The 24-year-old enters the weekend from three goals and six assists.

Santos FC's Projected Lineup (4-2-1-3): Aranha; Caju, Uvini, Neto, Cicinho; Renato, Alison; Lima; Rildo, Gabriel, Robinho

Cruzeiro's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Fabio; Samudio, Rodrigo, Leo, Ceara; Henrique, Nilton; Marquinhos, Baptista, Ribeiro; Moreno
