Palmeiras and São Paulo will face each other on the afternoon of this Sunday, February 4, 2024, starting at 4 pm, in a game valid for the Brazilian Super Cup. The duel will be played at the Mineirão stadium, in the city of Belo Horizonte, in Minas Gerais.

Palmeiras

Still without being able to count on Dudu, who was injured, coach Abel Ferreira’s Palmeiras team secured a place in the Super Cup after winning their second consecutive Brasileirão championship, even making a huge difference in relation to Botafogo in the final stretch to win the title.

In the current season, the team remains undefeated after playing four rounds of the Campeonato Paulista and despite having debuted with a draw against the modest Novorizontino, the other results obtained were very consistent with the competitive capacity of the alviverde team.

In the meantime, the team won the classic against Santos by a score of 2-1 and, in the following duel, they once again showed their strength to defeat Red Bull Bragantino, away from home, by a score of 1-0.

The fact of using the reserves in Bragança Paulista is precisely to guarantee that the Palmeiras team would not have any new absences for this Sunday, taking the Super Cup decision with due seriousness in search of another trophy to adorn its gallery.

There were 3 wins, 2 draws and no defeats in the last 5 officially played matches. During this period they beat Red Bull Bragantino, Santos and Inter de Limeira, in addition to drawing with Cruzeiro and also with Novorizontino.

São Paulo

On the other side is the São Paulo squad, which in turn has two consecutive victories and, like its opponent, also arrives undefeated this season after four rounds of the Paulistão in which it even scored the same number of points as Palmeiras (10).

However, their most recent duel was a classic with a lot of rivalry against Corinthians, in the Neo Química Arena, but the São Paulo team showed a lot of strength to win by a score of 2-1, increasing the rival’s crisis and gaining confidence on the eve of the Super Cup decision.

The team has several famous players in its squad and is led by coach Thiago Carpini, who recently arrived at the club.

Tricolor from São Paulo is preparing for a very busy season by returning to the Copa Libertadores for the same reason that secured a place in the Super Cup, which was the Copa do Brasil title last season, when it was still led by Dorival Júnior, who left the club to take over the Brazilian team.

In the 5 matches played previously, 4 wins, 1 draw and no defeat were recorded in São Paulo, beating Flamengo, Santo André, Portuguesa and also Corinthians, in addition to drawing with Mirassol.

Conclusion:

Rated with a certain favoritism, Palmeiras has a good team, used to growing in decisive moments and has everything to take advantage in this classic, worth a national title, being a very interesting bet and still with very attractive odds.
