Sao Paulo take on the visitors Palmeiras in the round of 16 match of Copa do Brasil.
The match will be played on Friday, June 24th Estádio do Morumbi (Sao Paulo).
Sao Paulo is trying to stay among the leaders of the current draw. "Tricolor" for a long time already, more than a decade, cannot show something significant to thier fans. And 13th place in 2021 was not some kind of shock. But, of course, they wanted to fix this. The management took a rather populist step, returning Rogerio Seni to the project: the legendary goalkeeper-scorer re-occupied the post of head coach. He managed to win his group in the Copa Sudamericana with 16 points. And even in Brasileirao there was a good result, with the rise to the top five. But in the summer, there have been too many misfires, which is worth 0-1 on the Botafogo field. And against Palmeiras in the last round there were 1-2 at home.

Palmeiras aims to regain dominance in Brazilian football. "Piglets" in recent years almost never finished the year without some obvious success in the form of trophies won. In 2016 and 2018, it was possible to take the championship title. In 2020-2021, already under the current coach, Abel Ferreira, the Brazilians won the Copa Libertadores, the local analogue of the European Champions League, twice in a row. In addition, the Brazilian Cup was also taken. Now, too, the start can be called successful. In the Copa Libertadores, they showed 100% result in the group stage, 6 wins in 6 matches. In Serie A, the results are not so brilliant. But, having slipped a little at the start, the favorite began to justify its status by the summer, taking 1st place in the standings and gaining a foothold on it. Corinthians has the same number of points, but he played 1 match more.
The clubs crossed paths in the state championship - first in the regular season, and then in the final. Palmeiras won in the first match and in the decisive match the "pigs", losing 1-3 on the field of Sao Paulo, responded with a 4-goal rout. Palmeiras may as well repeat their success, albeit in the cup. But, taking into account the field factor, we will insure ourselves with a "zero" handicap for visitors.
Prediction for the match: Palmeiras to win with 0.0 handicap.
