Palmeiras vs. Atletico Mineiro
In an attempt to steer clear of a fourth consecutive Brasileiro defeat, the reigning champions, Palmeiras, will be hosting Atletico Mineiro at Allianz Parque on Thursday.
Meanwhile, the visiting team is eager to recover from their previous loss as they strive to secure their first victory over Palmeiras since August 2021.
Palmeiras’ aspirations of defending their Brasileiro title have suffered a significant setback in recent weeks. They’ve relinquished 11 points out of the last 15 available, experiencing defeats in their past three league matches against Gremio, Bragantino, and Santos.

These losses to fellow top-four contenders, Gremio and Bragantino, undoubtedly stung for Abel Ferreira’s squad. A 2-1 defeat at home to a struggling Santos team just over a week ago added to their woes. Additionally, during this challenging period, they faced a heart-wrenching loss to Boca Juniors in the Copa Libertadores semi-finals, decided by penalties.
What to remember – Palmeiras vs. Atletico Mineiro
Recent encounters between Palmeiras and Atletico Mineiro have been closely contested, with no more than one goal difference in five of their last seven head-to-head matchups. This suggests that another tightly contested match could be on the horizon this Thursday.
Both teams are eager to break their losing streaks and improve their chances of finishing in the top four. However, with neither side currently in top form, a draw in Sao Paulo may be the outcome they’ll have to settle for.
