São Paulo visit Internacional this Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Beira-Rio for the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship. The clash could mark a special moment for Marcos Antônio.
If he takes the field, the midfielder will reach 50 matches for Tricolor in the Brasileirão, cementing a journey marked by consistency since joining the club.
The milestone comes during a season in which Marcos Antônio has once again been a regular presence in the squad. In 2026, the player has already made 17 appearances and provided two assists, playing in different midfield roles and standing out for his movement and quality in building out from the back. Even with the change of coach, the midfielder continues to be named in the starting lineup.
In total, since arriving at São Paulo in 2024, Marcos Antônio has already played 74 matches, with eight assists provided. Over that period, he has established himself as one of Tricolor’s most consistent players and one of the team’s pillars. In the Brasileirão, he has five assists in 49 matches.
São Paulo have not won in the Brazilian Championship for two matches. The Tricolor side won their first two games under Roger Machado, but then suffered two defeats to Atlético-MG and Palmeiras, respectively. The São Paulo team have 16 points and sit in second place in the Brasileirão.
