Match Preview
Santos finished as runners-up in the Brazilian Serie A in 2016, and they are hopeful of winning the title this time.

As often in Brazil, he is about to face one of his former teams when Santos play Cruzeiro. This is a classic heavyweight clash between two potent sides, we can state in our Santos vs Cruzeiro preview.
Cruzeiro have started the Brazilian Serie A season positively, beating Sao Paulo at home and taking a point at Sport Recife under former Brazil coach Mano Menezes. They are hopeful of a bright season, but their record at Santos is not encouraging, as we show in our Santos vs Cruzeiro predictions.

Overall, Santos won three out of the last four matches against Cruzeiro, without losing once. Santos had an exceptional home record last season, and it is unlikely to change this term. That means that taking advantage of high odds on Santos could be a good idea, and this time the odds are tempting at 2.10.
