Grêmio have come here for an entertaining battle versus the hosting Palmeiras. Read up on the fixture with this thorough Serie A preview!
- Palmeiras have the most scored goals (11) in Serie A
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Palmeiras and Grêmio.
Palmeiras form and stats
Perfect Serie A season at home so far for Palmeiras 2 wins from 2 appearances.
Palmeiras enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Goiás's place. The match ended 5-0 with Artur, Veiga, Dudu and Endrick scoring. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Palmeiras played a great game against Goiás and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one. The hosts have an in-form goalscorer in Veiga, having scored in three consecutive games. Veiga (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 8.45/10. Veiga scored one goal, hit five key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times.
Before that game, a strong away victory at Barcelona. A Copa Libertadores game.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Serie A game versus Bragantino in only three days. This game is also played here at Allianz Parque.
Early season league goal statistics from Palmeiras's 2 home games: {4 goals}, 2 conceded.
Grêmio form and stats
Grêmio are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Serie A, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).
There were no winners in Grêmio's previous match, the home game that ended 3-3 vs Bragantino (placed 12th). As you can tell from the result, the match against Bragantino was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today? The draw against Bragantino came from a losing position. The Grêmio manager Portaluppi brought on Galdino as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level. Suárez, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.64. Suárez scored one goal.
Preceding that game was the away victory against Cuiabá with the score of 2-1.A quick return to home after this game, as Grêmio are hosting Fortaleza in the Serie A only four days away.
It's early days yet, but Grêmio has scored 2 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
