São Paulo and Palmeiras meet this Sunday night (March 3) at 8 p.m. Brasília time (6 p.m. ET) at MorumBIS in the 11th round of the 2024 São Paulo State Championship. The match will air on TNT Sports (cable) and Max (streaming).
Palmeiras takes the field with nothing to worry about. Verdão leads both its group and the overall standings, has already clinched a spot in the next stage and can no longer lose first place in its group. It’s also coming off a 2-0 win over Portuguesa.
São Paulo isn’t nearly as comfortable as its rival. The Tricolor leads its group only on goal difference, and if it loses, it will not only give up first place but also give third-place São Bernardo a chance to pull level on points. That would push the decision on who advances to the final round.
For those who like to bet, betting sites see a very even matchup and, as of this writing, are paying (decimal odds):
São Paulo: 2.67
Draw: 3.20
Palmeiras: 2.77
