Corinthians faced Palmeiras on the night of last Sunday (12) at Neo Química Arena in the 11th round of the Brazilian Championship and ended up with a goalless draw. The result kept the team in 16th place with 11 points — two wins, five draws, and four losses — with eight goals scored and 11 conceded.
With the result, Corinthians reached five derbies without a win — four draws and one defeat — something that had not happened since the second half of 2023 and the start of 2024. In 2026, the club from Parque São Jorge has recorded two draws against Santos (Paulistão and Brasileirão), one against Palmeiras (Brasileirão), and another against São Paulo (Paulistão), in addition to a defeat against Verdão (Paulistão) — three goals scored and four conceded.

Corinthians had the same run between August 2023 and January 2024. At the time, the team suffered three defeats to São Paulo, in addition to two draws, against Santos and Palmeiras, respectively. The matches were played in the Copa do Brasil, Paulistão, and Brasileirão.
During that period, the winless run in derbies reached 10 matches and was ended in November 2024 with a 2-0 victory over Palmeiras in Itaquera. The goals were scored by attacking midfielder Rodrigo Garro and forward Yuri Alberto.
Corinthians’ last derby win came on November 20, 2025, when they beat São Paulo 3-1 at Neo Química Arena in a Majestoso valid for the 34th round of the Brasileirão.
Corinthians will now turn their attention back to the Conmebol Libertadores group stage. That is because next Wednesday (15), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), Alvinegro will face Colombia’s Independiente Santa Fe at Neo Química Arena in the second round of the international competition.
