Cruzeiro is in the fight for the leadership of Serie A, but this Sunday (5/10), Leonardo Jardim will have to deal with absences and changes. Kaio Jorge is on the list of players who will not be able to enter the field against Sport, in a game for the 27th round of Serie A of the Brazilian Championship.
Why doesn’t Kaio Jorge play against Sport?
In the duel against Flamengo, mid -week, Kaio Jorge received a yellow card and completed a sequence that leaves him out of Sunday’s duel.
Fabrício Bruno, William and Lucas Romero also meet suspension. With this, there are four certain changes in the starting lineup.
Kaio Jorge is the scorer of the Brazilian Championship, with 15 goals in 24 matches. With the absence of the striker, the technician should choose the best option he has in the bank: Gabigol.
The last chance the player had to start a match was on July 30, in the draw with the CRB for the Brazil Cup. Since then, there have been nine performances leaving the bank.
Likely cruise lineup: Cassio; Kauã Moraes, Jonathan Jesus (João Marcelo), Villalba and Kaiki; Lucas Silva, Matheus Henrique, Christian and Matheus Pereira; Keny Arroyo (Eduardo) and Gabigol. Technical: Leonardo Jardim.
