Game Information

05/08/2025 – (Kick Off 00:00)

The last time Santos faced Juventude was back in October 2022, where they ran out comfortable 4-1 winners at home in the Brasileirão. It was a dominant display from the hosts, who took control early and never looked back.

Coming into this fixture, both sides sit in the drop zone and will be desperate to improve their form and lift themselves out of the bottom four.

Santos
Santos find themselves in the relegation zone, sitting on 15 points after 16 matches, with a record of four wins, three draws, and nine defeats. They know that a victory in this round could lift them out of the drop zone, a huge incentive as the pressure continues to mount.

They are currently winless in their last three league matches, but there were signs of fight last time out. Down to 10 men and trailing 2-0 against Sport Recife, Santos battled back to earn a 2-2 draw thanks to a spirited second-half comeback. They’ll be hoping that resilience carries into this next fixture as they aim to climb out of danger.

Juventude
Juventude are in real trouble. They’ve lost their last three matches, conceding eight goals without scoring a single one. They currently sit 19th in the table with just three wins, two draws, and ten defeats from their 15 games, and trail the survival line by four points.

Last time out, they suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat away to Bahia, a match made worse by the late sending off of Hudson. It was another frustrating outing for a side that’s now desperate for a response. With confidence low and goals drying up, Juventude need something to spark a turnaround before they get cut further adrift.

Santos Expected Lineup: Gabriel Brazão, Mayke, Luisão, Luan Peres, Souza, João Schmidt, Zé Rafael, Rollheiser, Gabriel Bontempo, Barreal, Neymar.

Juventude Expected Lineup: Gustavo, Reginaldo, Ángel Wilker, Abner, Marcelo Hermes, Caíque, Jadson, Mandaca, Lucas Fernandes, Gabriel Veron, Gilberto

Prediction – 1-0
