Santos takes the field this Tuesday (28) at 7 p.m. (Brasília time), when they visit San Lorenzo at Estadio Nuevo Gasómetro in Argentina for the third round of the 2026 CONMEBOL Sudamericana.
Peixe sit at the bottom of Group D with just one point and are looking for their first win in this edition of the continental tournament.
The Argentine side has four points and leads the group, which also includes Deportivo Cuenca (three points) and Deportivo Recoleta (two points).
Compared to the last match (a 2-2 draw with Bahia in the Brasileirão), coach Cuca opted to start Gabriel Brazão, Luan Peres, Willian Arão, Neymar and Gabriel Barbosa in place of Diógenes, João Ananias, João Schmidt, Thaciano and Rony, respectively, for Santos.
In the Sudamericana, only the top team from each group advances directly to the round of 16.
Whoever finishes in second place will play a playoff against the team dropping down from the Libertadores after finishing third in its group.
After the challenge in Argentina, Alvinegro Praiano will still face Deportivo Recoleta (05/05 – away), San Lorenzo (20/05 – home) and Deportivo Cuenca (26/05 – home).
