Athletico v Palmeiras: Odair and Abel meet as long-serving, intense touchline leaders
Saturday’s Athletico v Palmeiras brings together two of Brazil’s longest-serving top-flight coaches. According to Globo.com, Abel Ferreira has been in charge for almost six years at Palmeiras, while Odair Hellmann ranks fourth, about one year and four months into his Athletico tenure.
Athletico, third in the Brasileirão, host second-placed Palmeiras at 19:30 at the Arena da Baixada in the 31st round.
Beyond longevity, both are noted for intense touchline behaviour, which at times puts them under scrutiny from officials. Abel has collected 13 cards this season, nine yellow and four red, while Odair has seven, six yellow and one red.
