Fluminense
Motivation abounds after the comeback win over Vasco in the last round of the BR.
Expectations were for Fuentes and Ganso to return to the starting lineup.
Which was confirmed.
Thiago Silva could have been preserved, but he will start.
Keno had been being preserved, but he has an injury to the adductor in his right thigh.
Samuel Xavier is being spared again.
Cannobio, Bernal, Cano, and Otávio remain in the DM.
Once Caldas
The team led by Alfredo Arias advanced to the second phase of the Colombian Apertura by finishing seventh in the first phase.
Veteran Dayro Moreno, 39, is the reference point in the attack.
This is his sixth stint with the club that launched his career, and he has 14 goals in 26 games this season - four of them in the Sudamericana.
