Santos will try to finish their job against Gremio today, eliminating their fellow Brazilian rivals from the 2020 Copa Libertadores. It will be the third meeting between these two teams this year. Here you will find everything there is to know about this exciting quarter-final first leg game, such as the match preview, information, storylines, predictions, and how to watch or live stream it in the US. 

Santos almost surprised Gremio last week, getting a valuable draw at Arena do Gremio after dominating most of the game. They will try to take advantage of playing at home and finish Gremio, who were having a terrific streak until they ran into Santos. 

Gremio will try to surprise Santos, who didn’t have a good home game against LDU Quito in the prior round. They need only one goal to advance to the next round so there is hope for them and a big chance to qualify to the semifinals.

El Tricolor have tied their last two games and they need a victory as soon as possible. That’s when this game shows up for them to finally get past Santos, who appear to be their biggest obstacle in every competition this season.

Santos vs Gremio: Predictions 

This is a very difficult game to predict. The last time Santos played at home in this competition, they had trouble against LDU Quito. Gremio could take advantage of that but if there’s a team that knows how to play against Renato Gaucho’s side, that’s Santos. That said, Gremio should win this game with one game of difference.
