Palmeiras repeats formula to overcome Brazilian teams’ terror stage

Palmeiras embarked yesterday afternoon to Ecuador to prepare for the first leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinals against LDU, on Thursday (23), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at the Rodrigo Paz Delgado Stadium – located in Quito, about 2.7 thousand meters above sea level. The stage of the clash is known as a terror for Brazilians, but Palmeiras will use the same formula as in other games at high altitudes to return to São Paulo with a good result. Palmeiras only lost one of their last six games at high altitudes: 3-1 against Bolívar in the 2021 Libertadores group stage, when they rested all their players aiming at the Paulistão final.
