Both teams are enjoying a good season so far and games like this could be decisive. Here's the preview for Remo - Santa Cruz!
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Santa Cruz have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
