After a recent setback Palmeiras were dethroned by Santos FC and are now struggling to return on the top spot as they are just 4 points behind.
Ceará SC will be determined to remain on a Copa Sudamericana qualification spot in the standing, so they will try not to make any mistakes against the relegating team of Chapecoense SC.
On the other hand, Chapecoense are just two points from safety and will be eager to get at least a point from this very next away fixture.
One big challenge coming up for the league leaders, who will travel to meet São Paulo FC.
The away side have shown great results lately, having won all their last 6 matches, but their Saturday rival has been undefeated for quite a time also and will have the advantage of playing at home.
Palmeiras will try to return to the winning ways in their next home fixture against Bahia.
The home side have been drawing frequently which led to their detronation, so if they want to once again up the table they will have to start earning more points.
In a rather close match Botafogo RJ will try to better their poor recent form with a positive result against Atlético PR.
The away side haven't shown good results in their most recent away matches, but considering their opponent's pity form at home, they might get the three points.
