Palmeiras had to adapt without Allianz Parque at the start of this season and has made Arena Barueri its home. Having qualified for the quarterfinals of the Paulista Championship, Verdão still does not have Allianz available and will once again play a knockout match of the State Championship in Barueri after two years.
The last time Palmeiras played a quarterfinal match of the Paulistão in Barueri was in 2024, a campaign that ended with the alviverde team as champions. On that occasion, Palmeiras thrashed Ponte Preta by 5-1, with a hat-trick from Flaco López. Murilo and Piquerez scored the other goals.
After that, Verdão got past Novorizontino in the semifinal and Santos in the grand final. That year, the club reached the final undefeated, lost the first leg, but overturned the score in the return match.
Palmeiras has been a finalist in the last six editions of the Paulista Championship and, during this period, has won four titles (2020, 2022, 2023, and 2024) and finished as runner-up twice (2021 and 2025). Under the command of Abel Ferreira, the alviverde team is undefeated in the quarterfinals, with five wins over Bragantino, Ituano, Novorizontino, São Bernardo (twice).
