After advancing to the Copa do Brasil round of 16 over Jacuipense-BA, Palmeiras now turns its attention back to the Brazilian Championship.
Verdão is in first place in the tournament with 34 points and is coming off a 1-1 draw against Remo at Mangueirão, in Belém-PA. The goal was scored by Ramón Sosa.
Cruzeiro, meanwhile, sits in 11th place with 19 points and, in the last round, beat Bahia 2-1 at Casa de Apostas Arena Fonte Nova, in Salvador.

Center back Benedetti, who sprained his ankle in the match against Jacuipense in the Copa do Brasil, suffered ligament injuries in his right ankle, with no need for surgery, and will therefore be unavailable for the team.
Absent from Palmeiras’ last match, Andreas Pereira, Arthur and Paulinho trained normally full-time at the Football Academy and could strengthen the team for the game against Cruzeiro. Allan, also recovered, is suspended and will miss the Brasileirão match as well.
