Their attack has been consistent, scoring in 5 of the last 7 games in this competition. At home, there is a tendency for few goals, as 20 of their last 33 matches ended with under 2.5 goals.
Palmeiras enters this classic encounter motivated to maintain their top position in the league, understanding the importance of winning in front of their fans. The team boasts one of the most robust defences in the league, which has been a key factor behind their success thus far. Their tactical consistency and experience in decisive matches could play to their advantage in this confrontation. Although this classic is generally closely contested, the home advantage and their current form position Palmeiras as the favoured side. The expectation is for a composed performance focused on efficiency, aiming for control of possession and territory.
Team analysis: São Paulo
The visiting team currently occupies 11th place with 9 points, having secured 1 victory and 6 draws. In their previous match, they drew away to Ceará (1-1), followed by a home draw against Fortaleza (0-0).
