Palmeiras: two home games, quick prep for Copa do Brasil test | OneFootball

Palmeiras begins a week with a packed schedule and no room to breathe in the final stretch of the Brazilian Championship. Monday is expected to be dedicated to the second training session after the defeat to Santos, focusing on immediate adjustments for the upcoming commitments.

On Tuesday, the squad will hold their last training before the match against Vitória, scheduled for Wednesday at Allianz Parque, in a game valid for the 37th round of the Brasileirão, brought forward by the CBF.

After Wednesday’s match, the Verdão squad is expected to report back on Thursday, starting preparations to face Fluminense again at Allianz Parque, this time for the 35th round.

The expectation is that Abel Ferreira will use the short interval to recover players and align tactical details, since Saturday’s match is decisive for the team’s ambitions in the championship. On Friday, the group will finalize adjustments to face the Tricolor from Rio.

The match takes place on Saturday, keeping the sequence of home games. Without extended rest, the squad is expected to return to work on Sunday, beginning preparations for the match against Grêmio, scheduled for Tuesday, once again putting Palmeiras on the field in a short period and demanding full attention from the physical department.

With the defeat to Santos in the last round, Verdão saw Flamengo take the lead after thrashing Sport 5-1 at Mané Garrincha. As a result, Alviverde dropped to second place in the Brasileirão, remaining with 68 points, three behind Rubro-Negro.
