Palmeiras heads into the final buoyed by a statistic that excites the fans: the team has not lost at home since Carlos Miguel became the starting goalkeeper.

With Carlos Miguel among the starters, Palmeiras has reduced its average goals conceded and shown greater consistency in decisive matches. In addition to making important saves, the goalkeeper has stood out for his presence in aerial balls and his reliability when coming off his line, something that has improved greatly since his arrival.

Temporary home, confidence intact

Even playing at Arena Crefisa Barueri due to renovations at Allianz Parque, Palmeiras has maintained its performance as the home team. The stadium has become an ally in the campaign, and the unbeaten run with Carlos Miguel reinforces the home advantage.
