Palmeiras and Bahia have confirmed their line-ups for the upcoming Brasileirão match at Nubank Parque. The game will take place at 9:30 p.m. on Thursday (8th) in Matchday 29 of the season. The match will be officiated by Bráulio da Silva Machado (SC).
Globo, geo TV, and Premiere will broadcast the clash. Palmeiras are currently in second place with 57 points, while Bahia sits in sixth with 48 points. A win could see Palmeiras move into the top four if Fluminense has a poor result.
Palmeiras will be led by João Martins, with Abel Ferreira suspended. The main concern for Palmeiras was the fitness of players who recently returned from an international break, including Gustavo Gómez, Giay, Piquerez, Emiliano Martínez, Mauricio, Sosa, Arias, and Flaco. Gómez and Flaco are set to start, while Jefté is recovering from surgery and serving a suspension after a doping test. Paulinho is still working on his fitness.
Bahia's injury list is almost clear, with only goalkeeper Léo Vieira still sidelined. Michel Araújo has been added to the matchday squad, and Kike Olivera returns from suspension.
