Glorioso started Sunday in 12th place with 30 points.

They are on a four-match winless run, including three straight defeats.

Verdão, meanwhile, began the round in first place with 52 points.

The mission is to get back to a good run, having picked up “only” eight of the last 15 points.

Botafogo ⭐

Rodrigo Bellão will be without Alex Telles, who is recovering from an injury.

He is betting on a back line of four defenders.

Kaio Pantaleão, Paulinho, and Barrera are the other players in the medical department.

Palmeiras 🐷

Abel Ferreira has been cleared to return after a suspension was temporarily lifted.

But Arthur will serve a suspension, which guarantees Piquerez a spot in the starting XI.

The big doubt was over the setup of the attacking sector.

Felipe Anderson gets his chance. And Vitor Roque starts on the bench once again.

Paulinho, Ramón Sosa, and Jefté remain in the medical department.
