San Paolo-Puerto Cabello: where to watch, absences and probable line-ups for the Copa Sudamericana match

Tricolor São Paulo meets the team this Tuesday (18), at the Morumbi stadium

San Paolo faces Academia Puerto Cabello this Tuesday (18), for the second match valid for the group stage of the Copa Sudamericana. The clash takes place at 21:30 (Brasilia time), at the Morumbi stadium.

On the debut of the competition, the Tricolore beat Tigre 2-0, in a match played in Argentina. Puerto Cabello, on the other hand, faced Tolima in the first round, being defeated 2-0. The match between the teams will be San Paolo’s first match for this year’s edition which will take place at home.

However, Rogério Ceni’s team comes from a not exactly positive streak. In the last week he drew goalless with Ituano for their debut in the Copa do Brasil. On Saturday (15), he was defeated by Botafogo 2 to 1, in the first round of the Brazilian championship. Furthermore, he will have new absences in attack for this Tuesday’s game (18).

Against Botafogo, Luciano and David were replaced after accusing clinical problems. Erison also made the list, with a stretch in fibrosis. Luciano trained normally with the team this Monday (17), but David also had an effort. Even so, Ceni has to go in full force for the match, mostly due to the pressure he faces after the bad results.

Venezuelan opponents São Paulo was founded in 2011 and only started having a professional squad in 2014. But at this stage, of all the teams that will face the Tricolore, they have the best record. It is in first place in the Venezuelan championship, in addition to its only defeat against Tolima.

The team made it to the first division in 2017, with a highlight for the 2021 season when the Venezuelan league finished in fifth place.
