The Copa Libertadores finalists look to keep their slim hopes of qualification for the 2021 competition alive against their rivals from Sao Paulo
The Campeonato Brasileirao Serie A is the top level of soccer in Brazil and has been the breeding ground for some of the world’s greatest players including Pele and Neymar.
All games are live streamed on Fanatiz and you can sign up to watch free here.
As a result, football fans and scouts from all over the world watch the Brasileirao to see some of tomorrow’s stars today, as well as some of the most exciting and entertaining games on television, filled with amazing technical ability and plenty of goals.
The 2020 Serie A season was due to begin on May 3 and end in December but, due to the coronavirus pandemic, the tournament calendar was paused before eventually starting in August. It will now continue until February 24, 2021, barring any further delays.
How to watch Santos vs Corinthians
Santos’ focus for much of the last six months has been success on a continental level, leaving Serie A in a distant second place.
Cuca’s troops fought through to the final of the Copa Libertadores in January, where they lost out to a last-minute winner against Palmeiras to miss out on the title.
Despite rotating heavily in the Brasileirao, though, the Peixe retain a slim chance of qualifying for the 2021 Libertadores still.
Victory on Wednesday would move them within three points of Gremio in the last qualification spot with two games still to play.
Corinthians are also in the hunt for a Copa berth, although a place in the second-tier Sudamericana for the coming year looks far more likely.
Defeat at the hands of Flamengo on Sunday leaves them seven points behind Gremio, and if they fail to beat Santos at Vila Belmiro their hopes of making the competition would be all but extinguished.
Santos vs Corinthians is available to stream worldwide on Fanatiz, where you can sign up for a 7-day free trial.
