Palmeiras

A 0-0 draw against Gremio saw Palmeiras' title chances shrink to 23%, leaving them 3 points adrift of the leaders. O Verdão need to win 9 of their remaining 10 games to keep their title hopes alive at the 75% confidence interval, though direct Libertadores qualification is already virtually assured at 99%. The Alviverde side will seek an immediate rebound on October 9 against Bahia at Allianz Parque.
