Prediction

  • Emotions are likely to be running high in Recife on Sunday, with hosts Sport aware that only a win will give them a chance of escaping the drop.
  • The Santos team news will be a big boost to their hopes, but recent results have not been good and there will definitely be some nerves among the home players.
  • For the away side, this game will have a valedictory air: it's Cuca's last game in charge before he steps aside to deal with health problems.
