According to Globo Esporte Futebol, the difference between Palmeiras and Flamengo, the vice-leader, fell to four points after the draw against Mirassol. Four rounds ago, the difference was eight points. Flamengo has one game less.
The draw against Mirassol has highlighted Palmeiras' recent decline in form, with the team's point average dropping from 75.92% to 52.38% in the championship. This decline is attributed to various factors, including the sequence of games, injuries affecting the squad, and the lack of suitable replacements for departed players.
To regain their previous form, Palmeiras need to retake their intensity and fluency in attack, correct their marking on the sides of the field, and recover injured players.
