Abel Ferreira praised Palmeiras after their 2-0 win against Cuiabá on Saturday night (19), at the Pantanal Arena, but still sees Botafogo as the big favorites for the Brasileirão title. The distance between the two teams is 11 points.
The triumph allowed Verdão to close the gap on the isolated league leaders, who drew 0-0 with São Paulo.
