Palmeiras struggle again against top six sides in the Brasileirão | OneFootball

With 25 rounds played in the Brazilian Championship, Palmeiras' performance is poor against the teams in the G6, meaning direct competitors in the fight for a spot in the Libertadores and for the title.

Palmeiras played seven matches against G6 teams in the Brazilian Championship, recording one win, two draws, and four losses, totaling five points out of a possible 21, which represents a 23.8% success rate.

It's only five points out of 21 available. The only victory in this segment was against Botafogo, at Nilton Santos, with the Rio team missing several starters. The other two points came from draws against Mirassol (1-1 at home) and Botafogo (0-0 at home).

The losses occurred against Flamengo (2-0 at home), Cruzeiro (2-1 away), Bahia (1-0 both at home and away). There are still matches against Cruzeiro, Mirassol, and Flamengo in the second round.

Negative Feat

The losses to Bahia in both rounds of the Brasileirão were heavy for Palmeiras, considering that the club had never lost twice to the Bahian club in the history of the Brazilian Championship in a points system.

And now?

Palmeiras returns to the field next Wednesday (1st), at 7 PM (Brasília time) against Vasco, at Allianz Parque. The match is valid for the Brazilian Championship.
