Santa Fe - Santos Predictions
Santos will face Santa Fe for the third round of the Copa Libertadores and seek recovery with a victory. After losing on penalties to Ponte Preta in São Paulo, Peixe needs a win even because his coach is still under pressure, even after making an excellent participation in the Brazilian Championship of 2016. This will be the second time in all history that Santos and Santa Faith will face. The first time was in 1970, during a friendly in Bogotá defeated by the Fish by 2 to 1, goals of Douglas and Carlos Alberto. The Fish comes from a good State Championship, where he fell in front of a strong team of Ponte Preta on penalties. The same team that applied 3 to 0 at Palmeiras last weekend. However, the football presented does not come convincing. The team lost all intensity of last year and even the name of Dorival Júnior begins to be contested in the team. Already in the beginning of the local Championship, Independiente Santa Fé appears in the upper part of the table, in the sixth place. There were 15 games in the season and only six wins. In the last five games, there were three defeats and two wins. In the Libertadores the team occupies the second position in the group, with three points, behind the Santos with four.

Opened in 1938 with a capacity for 65 thousand people, the stadium was renovated in 1968 and currently has capacity for just over 36 thousand people.Santa Fe - Santos head to head
