Some Brazilian football enthusiasts see quality in the Palmeiras duo Vitor Roque and Flaco López. However, fans often forget about one of the longest-standing active partnerships in the Brasileirão: Arrascaeta and Pedro.
The duos will face each other this Sunday (19th), in the 29th round of the Brasileirão, starting at 4pm (Brasília time). The Flamengo pair and the Palmeiras duo are tied in the number of goal involvements this season, according to Transfermarkt.
Palmeiras:
However, Pedro and Arrascaeta have been playing together since 2020. Therefore, the chemistry between the Brazilian striker and the Uruguayan midfielder is greater than that of the Palmeiras duo, whose first match together was this year. In total, Giorgian de Arrascaeta has scored six goals assisted by Pedro, in addition to 19 goals by the striker after passes from the Uruguayan. The numbers could be higher, however, as the Brazilian missed some matches due to controversies.
The Flamengo duo can surpass the Palmeiras pair this Sunday (19th), starting at 4pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The teams occupy the top two positions in the Brasileirão.
