Look back at Palmeiras' biggest crowds in the Allianz Parque era | OneFootball

Palmeiras take the field this Saturday (02), at 9 p.m. (Brasília time), for a special clash against Santos. The match marks the farewell to the name Allianz Parque, which will be renamed starting Monday after the sale of the naming rights.

Last dance at Allianz

Opened in 2014, the stadium became synonymous with titles, packed stands, and pressure from the fans. Now, it closes a successful chapter to make way for a new identity after an agreement with Nubank. The new name has not yet been made official, but “Nubank Arena,” “Nubank Parque,” and “Parque Nubank” are among the possibilities.

More than 40,000 Palmeiras fans are expected for the match, bringing it close to one of the stadium’s attendance records.

The biggest crowds in the stadium’s history on this day of the week highlight the scale of the event:

Opposite moments in the standings

Palmeiras come into the match riding high, sitting at the top of the table and full of confidence in the competition. On the other side, Santos are going through a turbulent spell and find themselves in the relegation zone, under pressure for results.

To make matters worse for Peixe, the team’s biggest star, Neymar, will miss the match because of the synthetic pitch.
