Brasileirão today: six Saturday games as Palmeiras host São Paulo before Flamengo face Corinthians | OneFootball

Six Brasileirão matches take place on Saturday, headlined by Palmeiras v São Paulo, before Flamengo meet Corinthians on Sunday. According to Coluna Do Fla, the schedule continues today ahead of the Rio side’s trip.

At 16:00 Brasília time, Atlético Mineiro face Fluminense and Grêmio host Vasco. Chapecoense v Internacional is at 17:00, Palmeiras v São Paulo at 18:30, Botafogo v Red Bull Bragantino at 20:30, and Santos v Cruzeiro at 21:00.

The derby in São Paulo could shape the race at the top. Palmeiras have 53 points, one fewer than Flamengo, so victory at home could lift them above their rivals before they play.

Flamengo finished preparations at 11:00 on Saturday at Ninho do Urubu. With Thursday’s trip to Quito to face Independiente del Valle in the Libertadores, Leonardo Jardim may rest players.

Léo Pereira, Jorginho and Arrascaeta are among those who could be spared. Names referenced for the matchday group include Rossi, Varela, Danilo, Léo Ortiz, Ayrton Lucas, Pulgar, Lucas Paquetá, Jorge Carrascal, Plata, Samuel Lino, Luiz Araújo and Pedro, with Emerson Royal also mentioned.

Corinthians v Flamengo kicks off at 17:30 on Sunday at the Maracanã.
