São Paulo v Palmeiras: live stream, kick-off time and prediction | OneFootball

São Paulo and Palmeiras headline another chapter of the Choque-Rei derby on Saturday night (12), valid for the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. The ball starts rolling at 6:30 p.m. (Brasília time), when Tricolor visits its rival at their arena, in a clash also marked by both clubs splitting their focus with the decisive stages of Conmebol competitions.

Looking to build on three wins

São Paulo comes into the derby in a moment of recovery in the Brasileirão, boosted by two consecutive wins over Bragantino and Atlético-MG, results that lifted Dorival Júnior’s team to 10th place with 33 points.

Like its rival, Tricolor is also facing a decisive week internationally. In the Copa Sudamericana, the São Paulo side needs to overturn the 1-0 defeat suffered against Boca Juniors in the first leg. The semifinal qualifier will be decided at Morumbi next Tuesday (15).

Coach Dorival wrapped up São Paulo’s preparation for the Choque-Rei this Friday (11), where he finalized the lineup, with Luciano confirmed out of the attack.

São Paulo’s away match against Palmeiras in the Brasileirão will be broadcast live and exclusively on Premiere (pay-per-view).

Keeping an eye on the rival

The Pompeia side takes the field looking to recover in the national tournament standings after losing the lead in the previous round. Currently in 2nd place with 53 points — one fewer than leaders Flamengo —, the team coached by Abel Ferreira is also keeping an eye on preparations for the Copa Libertadores.

For the state derby, Abel Ferreira will not be able to count on defensive midfielder Marlon Freitas and center-back Barboza, who are suspended. On the other hand, midfielder Andreas Pereira is once again available to the coaching staff after serving a suspension in the continental match.

Also unable to attend the derby is coach Abel Ferreira himself, who was suspended for three matches by the STJD for kicking a microphone in the match against Mirassol. Assistant coach João Martins will replace him on the touchline.
