Palmeiras U-20 return to action this Saturday (20) at 4 p.m. (Brasília time) to face América-MG at Arena Crefisa Barueri in the 17th round of the Brazilian U-20 Championship.
With a place in the quarterfinals already secured, Verdão are in great form and lead the tournament outright with 38 points. Allan Barcellos’ side is the only unbeaten team in the competition, with 11 wins and five draws. They also boast one of the best attacking records in the tournament, with 43 goals scored and 19 conceded.
The team’s top scorers are Felipe Teresa and Heittor, both with ten goals in the Brazilian U-20 Championship. In the last round, the Crias da Academia once again showed their strength by thrashing Criciúma 6-0 away from home. Felipe Teresa scored twice, as did Victor Gabriel, while João Paulo and Antônio Marcos completed the scoring.
The current two-time national champions in the category, Palmeiras are aiming to win their fifth Brazilian U-20 Championship title. The team first lifted the trophy in 2018, were champions again in 2022, and won the last two editions, establishing themselves as one of the main powerhouses of youth football in Brazil.
Alongside their Brazilian Championship campaign, Verdão are also competing in the Paulista U-20 Championship. After beating Audax 2-0 in the previous round, their next state-level fixture will be against Guarani on the 27th (Saturday) at 10 a.m. at Academia de Futebol 2 in Guarulhos.
