RIO DE JANEIRO, Oct. 30 (Xinhua) -- Former Brazil midfielder Felipe Melo was on target as Palmeiras kept alive their hopes of back-to-back Brazilian Serie A titles with a 3-0 home victory over Sao Paulo on Wednesday.

Bruno Henrique Corsini struck in the 12th minute at Allianz Parque and Melo doubled the hosts' lead on the stroke of halftime. Gustavo Scarpa completed the rout just before the hour mark.
