Santos will face Coritiba on Wednesday (May 13) at 7:30 PM (Brasília time) at Couto Pereira Stadium in Curitiba, in the second leg of the Copa do Brasil fifth round. The first match ended in a goalless draw at Vila Belmiro. The game will be broadcast live on Amazon Prime Video.
Santos enters the match after a 2-0 victory over Red Bull Bragantino at home in the Brazilian Serie A, with goals from Neymar and Adonis Frías. Coach Cuca is expected to field Neymar in the starting lineup as the team seeks to advance. Midfielders Gustavo Henrique and Gabriel Menino have recovered from injuries and are available, as is Lautaro Díaz, who overcame a thigh issue.
However, defender Luan Peres will miss the game due to a fractured left hand. Goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão, who served a suspension, returned on Sunday and will start in goal, replacing Diógenes. Still absent are Vinícius Lira (knee injury) and Thaciano (muscle strain in the right thigh).
