Palmeiras returned to training on the morning of this Monday (09) at the Football Academy, after the 1-0 victory over Corinthians on Sunday night (08) at Neo Química Arena, for the Paulista Championship. Already qualified in advance for the quarterfinals of the state tournament, Verdão has 15 points and occupies second place in the qualifying phase.

The players who played for more than 45 minutes in the derby followed the schedule of recovery activities, with work in the recovery and weight training rooms of the center of excellence. Meanwhile, the rest of the squad, reinforced by the Academy's support group, went to the field for a scrimmage played in two halves of 20 minutes each.

Progressing in recovery

Among the day's highlights, midfielder Felipe Anderson began physical transition after recovering from a sprain in his left ankle and already worked on the pitch. Forward Paulinho also showed progress in the treatment of his right leg surgery and, after positive results in control exams, increased his workload, performing activities both indoors and on the field.

The Greatest Champion of Brazil will play again on Thursday (12) at 9:30 PM, facing Internacional at Beira-Rio, for the third round of the Brazilian Championship. The recent record is favorable to Verdão: in 2025, the alviverde team defeated Inter in both rounds — 1-0 in Porto Alegre and 4-1 at Allianz Parque — repeating victorious campaigns from 2016 and 2021. In the recent history of the matchup, Palmeiras won six of the last ten games, in addition to recording two draws and two losses.
