Abel oversees Palmeiras training as Bahia visit approaches | OneFootball

Palmeiras continued preparations for the 29th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro, with Bahia visiting on 8 October at 21:30. According to Globo.com, Tuesday morning’s session focused on technical work led by Abel Ferreira’s staff.

Since the squad reconvened on Friday, sessions have involved the first team, minus players away on international duty, alongside academy prospects.

Training centred on build-up and possession, pressing in the defensive phase, and passing drills.

Forward Paulinho followed his recovery plan for a right thigh injury with the club’s Health and Performance unit. He combined physiotherapy with exercises on the pitch.

The match at Nubank Parque will mark the league’s return after the FIFA international break.

Palmeiras are also competing in two other tournaments and are the only Brazilian side in that position. They face Fluminense in the first leg of the Libertadores on 14 October in Rio de Janeiro, then meet Vasco in the Copa do Brasil in November.
