Palmeiras get ready to welcome Bragantino for something different than the ordinary league football: The Copa do Brasil 8th Finals leg 1 of 2.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Palmeiras form and stats
Last season their Copa do Brasil adventure ended in the quarter-finals.The story so far in the Serie A for Palmeiras at their home stadium (Allianz Parque) is 3 wins, 4 draws and 2 defeats.
Palmeiras are confident in defense, having played 229 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.
A nice win for Palmeiras last time playing, versus Atletico Mineiro. That was also a home game and the match ended 3-0 with Raphael Veiga, Rony and Wesley scoring for the victors. Before that match, a Copa do Brasil win away at Bragantino.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Palmeiras as they are travelling to their away game against Vasco da Gama in the Serie A. That match is three days after this one.
The Palmeiras fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 9 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only -1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. On the other hand, Palmeiras have conceded 12 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Bragantino form and stats

The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Bragantino have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Sao Paulo game.
Bragantino play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Gremio. A 1-3 loss hosting Palmeiras before that.
