Palmeiras face first big test, aim to boost Arena Barueri crowds | OneFootball

The Palmeiras will face Capivariano next Saturday (21), at the Arena Barueri, in the first knockout match of the 2026 season for the Campeonato Paulista. As the pitch at Allianz Parque is still under renovation, Verdão is trying to improve attendance at the stadium managed by one of the companies of president Leila Pereira.

Low Attendance

Palmeiras has played five home games this year, all held in Barueri. The total attendance is 77,810 (an average of 15,562), with the highest being in the classic against São Paulo: 23,842. There were four matches in the Paulistão and another in the Brasileirão, against Vitória.

Palmeiras as Home Team in 2026:

Return Home

The forecast is for Palmeiras to return to Allianz Parque in March. The first game scheduled at the stadium is against Mirassol, on March 15, for the Brazilian Championship. However, if the team advances in the state tournament, the return could be earlier. Presence in the semifinals (on the weekend of February 28 and March 1) is unlikely, but in the event of a final (March 4 or 8), it is possible that the pitch will be ready to host Abel Ferreira's team.
