Local rivals Sao Paulo and Palmeiras lock horns once again for the second-leg of the quarter-final clash at the Allianz Parque.
Despite winning the first leg, Sao Paulo would be wary of their record playing away from home and their shambolic outings on the road could be a reason for their downfall once again.
Palmeiras are on a winless streak extending up to five games as they look to progress in a competition they last won in 2020. But the 5-times winner's performance in the previous leg could be a point of concern as they registered just one shot in their defeat and the stalemate against Flamengo during the weekend just adds fuel to an ongoing fire.
Sao Paulo does have an advantage heading into the crucial clash but their away record could boost the hosts' chances of qualifying. The Brazilian side has garnered just four points out of seven games played away from home while their home record suggests a different story with 10 wins from 12 games.
The two sides had crossed swords in the tournament last year as well with Sao Paulo throwing away a first-leg lead at the Allianz Parque and only winning on penalties and Dorival Junior will be looking to avoid a repeat of that episode at any cost.
