Palmeiras vs. Atlético Goianiense and Santos vs. Juventude were the last games of round 31, which took place last night. Santos easily beat Juventude by 4-1, sinking their opponent to the bottom of the table, while the leader Palmeiras, away from home, could not get more than a 1-1 tie against Atlético Goianiense.
With only 7 rounds left before the end of the Brazilian championship, concern and anxiety are already hovering over those teams that are still fighting for an important place in the league. Many teams are still looking to stay in the top division, while others are trying to secure qualification for the Copa Libertadores, getting into the top four. The fight for the title seems already over since Palmeiras has a 10-point advantage over the second place, Internacional.
In eighth place, América Mineiro still dreams of entering the top four group, and to achieve this goal they will have to win most of the remaining games. Atlético Goianiense, Cuiabá, Ceará and Coritiba fight to avoid relegation, facing each of the 7 matches as a final.
For these and other reasons, the matchday 32 of the Brasileirão will be quite special. We will follow, below, the main clashes and the best guesses for the round.

After the defeat to Botafogo, at home, São Paulo will visit Palmeiras, in a match full of rivalry. The leaders of the Brasileirão drew the last match against Atlético Goianiense and need the victory to get closer and closer to the title of the Brazilian league.
The hosts won 4 of the last 5 matches they played, while the visitors won only 3 and embittered the 12th position in the table. After losing the Copa Sudamericana final to Independiente Del Valle, São Paulo fans are quite disappointed with the team and this lack of support seems to have affected the confidence of the players, who missed out on a victory against Botafogo in the last round.
Palmeiras remains motivated and has enough cast and reasons to win this match against one of their biggest rivals in the region. Our best pick is a 2-0 win for Palmeiras.
