A place in the Paulista A1 final will be at stake when Palmeiras and Novorizontino meet in the early hours of Friday morning.
Despite a difficult start to the Brazilian top flight, Palmeiras lifted the title for the second year running and will now be going all out to win the Paulista A1 trophy. The boys in green should already have two titles in the bag this season had they not lost on penalties to Sao Paulo in the final of the Supercopa do Brasil.
Novorizontino meanwhile missed out on promotion from Serie B but Tigre do Vale ended the season on a high note. The visitors are on a run of four unbeaten games in the league, three wins and a draw, and were also the exception in their Paulista A1 quarter-final tie against Sao Paulo.
Betting Tips Palmeiras vs Novorizontino: Palmeiras to win
Palmeiras just can't stop winning at Allianz Parque. Since losing to Atletico Mineiro last October, the hosts have gone thirteen home games unbeaten, winning twelve and drawing one. Their last home game was a 5-1 win over Ponte Preta and I fancy a similar result on Friday.
Novorizontino have had a lot of success in recent weeks, but their record against Palmeiras is not good. The visitors are winless in the last eight meetings between these two sides and suffered a defeat in six of those encounters.

Head coach Abel Ferreira will be without the services of Endrick this week. The 17-year-old made history last weekend with his goal against England and is likely to feature against Spain this week in Brazil's final game of the March international break.
Dudu will miss out due to a cruciate ligament injury, but the winger is the hosts' only injury concern ahead of Friday's game.

Novorizontino team news
Novorizontino head coach Eduardo Baptista will continue to rely on the services of Altemir Cordeiro and Geovane, who have five goals between them so far in the competition.
Altemir Cordeiro Pessôa Neto only played 45 minutes in the quarter-final against Sao Paulo, meaning he could be replaced on Friday by Lucca.
