Match preview: Sport vs Santos
Sport and Santos clash at Adelmar da Costa Carvalho Stadium for the 17th round of Brazileirão Serie A. Historically, this venue has seen a balanced record between these two teams, with one draw and one win apiece in their last three meetings. The last encounter at this stadium occurred on 24 November 2024, when Sport Recife triumphed over Santos with a score of 2-1. Goals were netted by Lucas Lima (63′ and 45′) for Sport, while Wendel Silva managed to score for Santos (77′). Although this match features the 20th placed team facing the 17th, it is worth noting that Sport are 20th in home matches, while Santos sit higher, at 11th for away games.
Team analysis: Sport
The home side currently occupies the 20th position with just 3 points, having drawn 4 matches and suffered 10 defeats. In their penultimate match, they lost to Botafogo (0-1) at home. Their last outing resulted in a 2-2 draw against Vitória. Sport has struggled heavily at home, managing only 2 points from 18 possible, having scored twice and conceded 9 goals. In their last six league fixtures at home, they recorded 2 draws and 4 losses.
They haven’t celebrated a win in 14 matches within this league. Their defence has been called into question, as they have conceded goals in 9 of their last 10 league games. Moreover, they tend to struggle to open the scoring, having done so only 3 times in their last 14 matches; of these, they failed to preserve the lead on every occasion. In these 14 matches, they conceded the first goal 9 times, never managing to turn the match around.
Sport’s campaign is indeed distressing in the ongoing points-based format of Brazileirão. The team has shown an inability to impose their match regardless of venue, suffering considerably in terms of possession. With unflattering statistics to show, particularly at home, they must adjust their play if they wish to secure vital points against Santos.
Team analysis: Santos
The away team currently finds itself in 17th place, with 14 points accrued from 4 wins, 2 draws, and 9 losses. In their second last match, they were defeated by Mirassol (0-3) on the road. Most recently, they were edged out at home by Internacional (1-2). Santos has demonstrated relative resilience to the home advantage, achieving similar results away as they do at home. In their last 8 games on the road, they have managed only 6 points from a possible 24, with 2 wins and 6 losses. Common outcomes in their away fixtures include finishing the first half at 0-0 (4 occasions in 7 games) and ending with a scoreline of 1-0 (3 times in 7 fixtures). Defensively, they have had their issues too; they have conceded goals in 7 of their last 10 league matches. Their recent away games have seen a trend of few goals, with 4 out of their last 8 fixtures concluding with fewer than 1.5 goals. In 15 league matches, they have never managed to turn around a scoreline from losing positions in the 9 matches in which they conceded first.
Santos is entering another demanding fixture in this league following a tough match against the well-drilled International side. The current standings highlight the urgent need to seize valuable points. They must adopt an offensive mindset, even away from home, in order to improve their chances of returning to Vila Belmiro with much-needed points.
