Serie A
Palmeiras and Sport Recife have met on nine occasions since the start of 2017. Palmeiras picked up victories in seven of those games. Sport Recife claimed just one victory.
Palmeiras team overview
Palmeiras return to Serie A action after a disappointing goalless draw against Universitario in the Copa Libertadores earlier this week.
While frustrated not to claim the points, the Big Green extended their unbeaten run to four matches after three successive victories earlier this month.
Sitting second in Serie A, four points behind Flamengo, but with a game in hand, Abel Ferreira's men have enjoyed a strong run of form domestically. Palmeiras won five of their last nine home Serie A games, including each of the last three.
Head coach Ferreira is likely to freshen up his first XI on Monday. However, Bruno Rodrigues, Raphael Veiga and Paulinho remain unavailable for the home side.

Sport Recife team overview
Sport Recife come into Monday's Serie A fixture now unbeaten in five matches after a 2:2 draw against Sao Paulo. The hosts were left frustrated having thrown away a two-goal lead with Maik´s stoppage-time goal securing a point for the visitors.
An improved run of form has seen Sport pick up four draws, while winning one of their last five Serie A matches. Daniel Paulista´s side had picked up just three points from their first 13 games of the season.
While in better form, the visitors have struggled on their travels. Recife lost six and won just one of nine away league fixtures this season.
Head coach Paulista is unable to call on four first-team players this week. Denis, Ze Roberto, Hereda and Sergio Oliveira are tipped to miss out on Monday.
