Palmeiras ready to face São Paulo, probable line-up revealed | OneFootball

This Saturday, at the Football Academy, Palmeiras completed their preparation to face São Paulo, in a match valid for the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. The teams will face each other this Sunday, at Morumbis, starting at 4pm (Brasília time).

The green squad began with a technical ball possession and marking work. Subsequently, under the command of Abel Ferreira and his staff, they carried out attack versus defense activities in the last third of the field and specific exercises for each position.

Midfielder Lucas Evangelista underwent surgery at the beginning of this week and continued his treatment with the Health and Performance Center started last Friday. The player underwent the procedure to correct a tendon injury suffered against Bahia on the last 28th of August. The expectation is that he will only return to the fields in 2026.

Right back Khellven should continue to be a loss for Palmeiras. The athlete, who is recovering from a foot trauma suffered in the match against River Plate, for the Libertadores. Thus, Giay should remain in the position. In addition to Evangelista and Khellven, the list of absences is completed by forward Paulinho (surgery on the right leg). Other than that, Abel Ferreira should not have more problems.

Thus, Palmeiras should take the field with: Weverton; Giay, Gómez, Murilo and Piquerez; Aníbal Moreno, Andreas Pereira and Raphael Veiga; Flaco López, Felipe Anderson and Vitor Roque.

In the last round of the Brasileirão, Palmeiras beat Vasco, by 3 to 0, with goals from Flaco López (twice) and Vitor Roque, at Allianz Parque. With the result, Verdão took over the vice-leadership, with 52 points won, and continues to chase the leader Flamengo, who has 55.
