Brasileirao
Palmeiras vs Fluminense
19:30 ET
Palmeiras and Fluminense will face each other this Saturday, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Allianz Parque, in São Paulo, in a game valid for the 21st round of the Brazilian Championship.
Verdão, sixth with 31 points, comes from a good moment on the field: they are seven consecutive victories, considering Brasileirão, Copa do Brasil and Libertadores. With Abel Ferreira on the bench, the Palmeiras team won three times, with five goals scored and none conceded. But the club suffers from more than ten major absences because of Covid-19, squads and other injuries.
Fluminense, fifth with 32 points, was also in a good moment, but lost the eight unbeaten games in the last round, when stumbling in Grêmio, in Maracanã. After stumbling at home, Tricolor tries to recover the points lost away from Rio de Janeiro and has a good record as a visitor: in the last four games, they won two and drew two.
