With a full house projection, Grêmio receives Brasil-Pel

For the duel with Xavante, the gremista planning foresees the use of starters. Coach Renato Portaluppi’s idea is to give continuity and harmony to the group, which has only two games in the year and received 10 players for this season. That way, the new gremista idol Luis Suárez will be on the field to the delirium of the fans.

The big doubt is whether Portaluppi will opt for the entry of Argentine midfielder Cristaldo from the start of the match or whether Colombian Campaz will remain in the team. The dilemma also involves the financial side, since the management intends to negotiate the player and, for that, needs to put the athlete in the window. On the other hand, a good amount was invested to bring Cristaldo to leave him in the bank.

With that doubt, possibly even minutes before the ball rolls in the Arena, the tricolor lineup has Brenno; Fabio, Bruno Alves, Kannemann and Reinaldo; Villasanti, Pepê, Campaz (Cristaldo), Bitello and Ferreira; Suarez.

The Gremista opponent, on the other hand, comes motivated by the victory in the debut of Gauchão, in front of their fans. The team commanded by Rogério Zimmermann beat Aimoré by 1-0 and want to surprise the favorite Grêmio at home. The tendency is for Brazil to repeat the same team with Marcelo Pitol; Luiz Gustavo, João Marcus, Rafael Dumas and Rennan Siqueira; Chicão, Germano and Luis Felipe; Rone, Rafael Pernão and Da Silva.

This Tuesday, the gremista leadership presented the last of the ten reinforcements hired at the beginning of the year. Right-back João Pedro terminated his contract with Porto, Portugal, where he had been playing for the B team. Without playing since June last year, the 26-year-old player sees the opportunity at Tricolor as one of the great career opportunities.

After a frustrating period in Europe and some unsuccessful loan spells in Brazil, João Pedro brings with him the experience of European football when he talks about his qualities: “my main characteristic is attacking, I really like to attack, but I am more experienced and I learned a lot score in Portugal. There, the lateral helps a lot in marking. I’m offensive, but I learned to be a more defensive player in Europe, ”he said.
