Team News

Fluminense
Palmeiras
  • Luiz Henrique suffered "muscle overload in his left thigh" according to the clubs' medical department and he will miss out here.
  • Nino is also out due to a ban.
  • Joaquin Piquerez and Gustavo Gomez are on international duty.

Prediction

  • With Atletico Mineiro 10 points clear, it's going to take the wheels to completely come off for Palmeiras to stand any chance of lifting the league title. Their main focus is the Copa Libertadores final at the end of the month. Palmeiras enjoyed a comfortable 4-0 victory in midweek over Atletico GO, which will give them confidence coming into the game here.
  • Fluminense have lost three of their last four games following their 1-0 defeat to Gremio on Tuesday. They put in a poor display and were lucky to only escape with a 1-0 loss. They must perform better here if they want anything from this match.
