Remo and Santos prepare for Série A clash at Mangueirão

Clube do Remo and Santos FC are set to face each other this Saturday at the Mangueirão stadium in Belém for the 28th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A. The match marks the debut of Thiago Carpini as Remo's new head coach, as the team attempts to climb out of the relegation zone from 19th place.

Santos enters the match in 10th place but faces significant roster challenges. The squad will be missing several key players, including Neymar due to a thigh injury and Philippe Coutinho, who is still working on match fitness. Additionally, goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão is expected to undergo surgery on his shoulder, and Everton Cebolinha is suspended due to yellow cards.

Remo also faces absences, including defender Matheus Felipe due to suspension and top scorer Jajá, who is sidelined with a calf injury. Over 10,000 fans have already secured tickets for the match. Entry to the stadium will require facial biometrics for all spectators over the age of 12.
