Team News

Atletico MG
Palmeiras
  • Marcelo Oliveira has kept his plans close to his chest ahead of this game.
  • Frickson Erazo, Fábio Santos, Lucas Pratto, Juan Cazares and Romulo Otero were all away on international duty.
  • Otero is a doubt with a knee problem.
  • Yerry Mina and Zé Roberto should be in the squad after shaking off knocks.
  • But Edu Dracena and Egídio may still start at the back as a precaution.
  • Moisés should return to the starting XI after suspension.

Prediction

  • Palmeiras' last major test of the season comes on Thursday night, away to Atlético Mineiro.
  • With three winnable games after this one, the Verdão will feel confident of sealing the Série A title if they manage to avoid defeat here.
  • The Galo's own title challenge has faded over the last few weeks but they will be keen to claim a morale-boosting scalp.
