Palmeiras seek first league win, prepare for Paulista Derby | OneFootball

After the defeat to Botafogo-SP in the Campeonato Paulista, Palmeiras needs to shift its focus to the Brazilian Championship. The team led by Abel Ferreira continues its February marathon and already has a match against Vitória on Wednesday, seeking its first win in the national tournament.

Palmeiras made its debut in the Brasileirão last Wednesday and only managed a 2-2 draw with Atlético-MG at Arena MRV. In a match where Verdão fielded a lineup closer to what is considered ideal, Flaco López and Vitor Roque scored the goals for the green-and-white team.

Against Vitória, Palmeiras will try to shake off its bad phase after two games without a win. The last positive result was a 3-1 victory over São Paulo in the fifth round of the state championship at Arena Barueri. Now, Verdão returns to its “home” to go after three points and try to regain morale before the derby against Corinthians, their next Paulistão fixture.

Palmeiras’ Schedule

Looking ahead, Palmeiras will return to training at the Academia de Futebol on Monday morning, when they will do recovery work. On Tuesday, Abel will lead the final training session before facing Vitória. After the Brazilian Championship match, the Palmeiras squad will turn its attention to Corinthians and will have three training sessions before facing their rivals.
