📋 Neymar v Arrascaeta? Santos and Flamengo reveal official line-ups

Santos and Flamengo face off this Wednesday (16th) at 8 PM (Brasília time) at Vila Belmiro, for the 14th round of the Brasileirão 2025. 

While the Rubro-Negro leads the championship with 27 points, the Peixe - with 11 points and in 16th place on the table - fights to stay out of the relegation zone.

The match marks Santos' return to the Brasileirão after more than a month, due to the pause for the Club World Cup and because last weekend's derby against Palmeiras was postponed by the CBF. 

Thus, coach Cléber Xavier decided to field the same team that started the friendly against Desportiva Ferroviária, which ended with a 3-1 victory for Peixe, featuring a goal and an assist from Neymar.

As for Flamengo, coming off a 2-0 victory over São Paulo, coach Filipe Luís chose to place Danilo and Varela in the positions of Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro, respectively.
