No derby in the world can have a better name than the Choque-Rei - The King Shock - and there's every chance that Saturday's meeting will live up to it. It's first vs third at the start of the weekend, but there's no doubt who has the momentum: Palmeiras are on a roll, having taken 30 of the last 36 points available to them. São Paulo have a far thinner squad and have found it hard to cope with absences, but they're only a point behind and have home advantage.
