Palmeiras face a daunting task as they prepare to host Flamengo at Allianz Parque for the second leg of their Copa do Brasil round of 16 clash.

Palmeiras stumbled in the second half during last week's match, finding themselves in a challenging position ahead of this crucial return fixture.

Their recent away form in the Copa do Brasil has been disappointing, suffering three consecutive defeats, with their last significant loss at this stage dating back to 2013 against Athletico Paranaense (3-0).

Their previous loss in the opening leg of this competition was against Sao Paulo, who went on to win the title in 2023 with a 2-1 victory at home.

Palmeiras has shown strength at home against Flamengo, remaining undefeated in their last five encounters across all competitions, including a goalless draw earlier this year in Serie A.

Flamengo, buoyed by a strong second half last week, are well-positioned to secure yet another quarter-final berth in the Copa do Brasil. They have not been eliminated at this stage since 2015 against Vasco da Gama and have a solid record in round of 16 fixtures, last losing in June 2022 to Atletico Mineiro.

Despite a recent loss to Sao Paulo in Serie A, Flamengo have won two of their last three away matches and remain in contention for the top spot in the league table.
