FPF reveals 2026 Campeonato Paulista dates, times and TV info | OneFootball

The Fiel torcida can already start organizing to follow Corinthians in the 2026 Paulista Championship. This Saturday, the Paulista Football Federation (FPF) released the detailed schedule for the first phase of the state championship, with dates and times for Alvinegro's matches, as well as the broadcasters responsible for airing each of the games.

It’s worth remembering that, due to changes in the Brazilian football calendar promoted by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), the FPF was forced to alter the format of its main competition, reducing the number of matchdays. As a result, the first phase will now have eight rounds, and the teams will face each other in a format similar to the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, with directed matchups.

The People’s Team’s debut is scheduled for January 11, a Sunday, at 4:00 p.m. (Brasília time) against Ponte Preta, at home. Next, the team plays its first away game, on the 15th, a Thursday, at 7:30 p.m. against Red Bull Bragantino. Then, Corinthians plays its first classic, the following Sunday (18th), at 4:00 p.m. against São Paulo, at Neo Química Arena.

The fourth match is another classic, this time away against Santos, on the 22nd, a Thursday, at 7:30 p.m. The team plays away from its fans again on the 25th, Sunday, at 4:00 p.m. against Velo Clube, and only after that returns to Itaquera to host Capivariano on the 31st, a Saturday, at 6:30 p.m.

In the seventh round, Timão hosts Palmeiras at Neo Química Arena on February 8, a Sunday, at 8:30 p.m. Finally, the team plays its last away game on the 15th, another Sunday, also at 8:30 p.m. against São Bernardo. All eight Corinthians matches will be broadcast by TNT, with other broadcasters splitting coverage of some games: HBO Max, Record, and CazéTV.

Corinthians enters the 2026 Paulista Championship aiming to defend the title won this year, after six years without trophies in men’s football. Still under the technical command of Ramón Díaz, the team finished the first phase in the lead, then defeated Mirassol in the quarterfinals, Santos in the semifinals, and Palmeiras in the final.
