Palmeiras and Flamengo juggle Brasileirão, Libertadores to the final | OneFootball

After securing a spot in the CONMEBOL Libertadores final, Palmeiras and Flamengo now shift their focus to the Brazilian Championship. Both teams have seven matches before meeting in the continental final, scheduled for November 29, and the marathon promises to be intense.

Palmeiras – Still Leading and Looking to Extend Their Slim Advantage

Palmeiras will play seven matches before the final, including clashes with teams fighting for a spot in the Libertadores and others desperate to avoid relegation.

Upcoming matches:

The match against Grêmio, away from home, is expected to be rescheduled in the Brasileirão calendar. This is because Verdão would be playing on the same weekend as the Libertadores final. Therefore, the most likely date is Tuesday, the 25th.

Flamengo – Chasing Palmeiras and with a Flexible Schedule

In the coming weeks, the rubro-negro will face a series of matches against opponents fighting for a spot in the G4 and to escape the Z4.

Upcoming matches:

Highlights include the classic against Fluminense and the clashes with Santos and Bragantino, teams that usually make things difficult for the rubro-negro club. Flamengo will face Atlético-MG on the Tuesday of the week of the final, three days before traveling for the decisive Libertadores match.

Dominant Clubs

Palmeiras and Flamengo have enjoyed years of total dominance in Brazilian football, and for the first time, they reach the end of the season competing for the two main trophies in Brazilian football. In the Brasileirão, Verdão still holds a one-point advantage over the team from Rio. In the Libertadores, the decisive match in Lima, Peru, will be a rematch of the 2021 final, where the green-and-white club became three-time champions of the Americas.
