After 1 win, 1 draw, and 1 loss, the home team is currently in 12th place, having earned 3 points. In the last match, they drew 1-1 away against Corinthians after previously winning 1-0 at home against São Bernardo. This team is stronger when playing in its stadium, as they have recorded 2 wins, 3 draws, and 10 losses in their last 30 away games; compared to 9 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses at home. São Paulo has won 5, drawn 1, and lost 4 of their last 10 home matches across all competitions. Defensive solidity has not been their strong point, as they have conceded goals in 8 of their last 10 games.

São Paulo enters this round in 10th place, with four points from three matches, resulting from one victory, one draw, and one loss. Their offensive performance is still modest, with only two goals scored, while the defense has already conceded four, indicating the need for adjustments.
