In great form, Corinthians arrives motivated for the classic. Dorival Júnior's team comes from winning the Supercopa do Brasil and a 3-0 victory over Capivariano in the Paulistão.
Timão is in fourth place in the State Championship table, with 11 points, and can surpass Palmeiras with a win.
Palmeiras, on the other hand, eased the pressure with a 5-1 thrashing of Vitória last Wednesday in the Campeonato Brasileiro. The triumph ended a negative streak for the team this season.
Verdão is in second place in the Paulistão, with just one point more than Corinthians. Abel Ferreira's team seeks rehabilitation after losing to Botafogo-SP in the last round of the tournament.
The history between the rivals slightly favors Palmeiras. Verdão has 136 wins in 387 matches played, compared to 133 for Corinthians. Additionally, there have been 118 draws.
The recent record leans towards the alvinegro side. In the last ten classics, there have been four wins for Timão and two for Alviverde, along with two draws.
