Even without achieving victory at Vila Belmiro, the Alvinegro Praiano boasts a 61% success rate in matches against its main rivals. This figure places Santos at the top of the list, surpassing Palmeiras, which holds the second position with 58%. The performance reflects the mystique of the Alçapão, which continues to be the most hostile territory for visitors in state classics.
Right behind the Alviverde, Corinthians appears in third place with a 57% success rate in its domain. São Paulo closes the ranking of the four greats with 56%.
