Insights:

  • Palmeiras have the most matches over the total-line (19) in Serie A

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Copa Libertadores.

Palmeiras have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1500 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
