Sun May 11 19:50:00 UTC 2025: ## São Paulo Faces Palmeiras in Crucial Brasileirão Clash

**Barueri, SP –** São Paulo will take on league leaders Palmeiras this Sunday at 5:30 PM (Brasília time) at Arena Barueri in a highly anticipated Brasileirão match. The game, broadcast on Globo and Premiere, pits 11th-placed São Paulo (9 points) against the top-of-the-table Palmeiras (16 points).

São Paulo enters the match following a 2-0 Libertadores victory over Alianza Lima, but a goalless draw against Fortaleza in their last Brasileirão outing. Midfielder Oscar is expected to return to the squad, potentially appearing from the bench after training with the team. However, key players remain sidelined, including Luiz Gustavo, Calleri, Henrique, Igor Vinícius, and Lucas Moura (resting). Enzo Díaz and Marcos Antônio return from suspension.

Palmeiras, meanwhile, will be looking to maintain their strong form.
