With only five points conquered, Rubro-Negro from Rio occupies the 14th position in the table. For this afternoon’s duel, coach Paulo Sousa will not be able to count on Thiago Maia, released due to the death of his grandfather. Among those related for this afternoon’s game, is the attacking trio Bruno Henrique, Everton Ribeiro, Gabigol and Arrascaeta – the Uruguayan was the only one who played last Wednesday (11), against Tombense, for the Copa do Brasil.

The pressure on Ceará is even greater, after three consecutive defeats in Serie A. Vozão has three points, occupies the 17th place, and can’t wait to move away from the relegation zone (Z4). Among the absences of coach Dorival Júnior’s team are midfielder Rodrigo Lindoso, who is currently suspended, will have to dribble the absences of Jael, Fernando Sobral, Messias and Léo Rafael, who are still injured. Yesterday afternoon (12), defender Luiz Otávio and defensive midfielder Richardson trained separately from the rest of the squad.
