Now the club from Belém face something harder: absorbing the pressure of one of the country's biggest names and keeping the tie alive ahead of the home leg.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Santos look like the favourites here - home advantage, a stronger squad, and a positive record against Remo this season. That said, the first leg of a two-legged tie rarely opens up: the visitors will likely sit deep, and the hosts won't be throwing caution to the wind ahead of the return match.
Remo have shown they can make life difficult for bigger sides, but Santos's quality and the Vila Belmiro factor should be the difference. A home win is the call, though it won't be straightforward. The editorial prediction is a Santos win. Predicted score: 2-1.
