São Bernardo vs Palmeiras Prediction: Palmeiras will be looking to redeem itself from the previous game

In the last round, Palmeiras conceded a draw to the team that scored the fewest points in the Paulistão. Santo André equalized from a corner kick in the 89th minute through Lohan, a player who had entered the field two minutes earlier. The Verdão continues to lead its group, but it's not the first time this kind of disappointment has happened at the end of Palmeiras' matches. Abel Ferreira's side will be looking to make amends for the game with Santo André in the visit to São Bernardo do Campo.

São Bernardo

The ABC Tiger is in the hunt for qualification from Group D. The team has 12 points, the same as Novorizontino and one behind São Paulo, which leads the group despite having a game in hand. São Bernardo is in good spirits after a draw at RB Bragantino, a team that finished sixth in the Brasileirão. The team from São Bernardo do Campo plays in the Série C, but that doesn't stop it from being ambitious. The Potato Farmer hasn't lost at home yet, so Palmeiras shouldn't expect to have an easy time of it.

Palmeiras

As we mentioned earlier, the last result was disappointing. A draw with the worst team in the Paulistão can never be acceptable for a side like Palmeiras, so a reaction to the draw with Santo André is likely. Of the eight times São Bernardo and Palmeiras have met, Verdão has won seven, while the other game ended in a draw.

Expert Betting Tips

Palmeiras is the favorite, but the players must not underestimate the opposition, as it seems to have happened in the last match. The Verdão can expect difficulties, given that São Bernardo is a well-organized team, but if Palmeiras keeps the focus, it will win the game. I'm backing the Brazilian and Paulista champions to win, as the players will want to show that their last game was an accident.
