Palmeiras on a home winning streak, but away form takes a dip | OneFootball

Palmeiras is competing for the leadership of the Brazilian Championship point by point with Flamengo, and for that, it relies on a crucial factor: the Allianz Parque. The team takes the field this Sunday (26th) against Cruzeiro, the third-placed team, at the arena, in search of their tenth consecutive home victory in the Brasileirão.

The Verdão was once the third-worst home team until the first ten rounds of the Brasileirão, but currently, the team is already the second-best with home performance, with a 77.7% success rate, only behind Bahia. There are 11 wins, two draws, and two losses.

The team had embarked on the Club World Cup in June without having won at home in the Brasileirão – the two victories as a home team in the competition had occurred at Arena Barueri. The first victory at Allianz came only at the end of July, against Atlético-MG – and since then, there have only been victories at the venue.

Now, in the Brazilian Championship, the team boasts a streak of nine consecutive victories – Verdão holds the current longest winning streak as a home team in the competition. Considering the record in all competitions, there are seven consecutive wins, all with three or more goals scored. See:

Good visitor, but in a bad moment

Palmeiras is also the second-best visitor, with 13 games, eight wins, two draws, and three losses – a 66.6% success rate – but is experiencing the opposite situation as a home team: after achieving nine consecutive wins away from home between April and May, the team is in a different phase, with two losses in the last three games away from Allianz Parque in the Brasileirão – a victory over São Paulo and defeats against Bahia and Flamengo, last Sunday (19th).

Besides the poor moment in the national tournament away from home, the team comes from a 3-0 defeat against LDU in Quito last Thursday (26th) in the Libertadores. The defeats against Flamengo and LDU mark the first consecutive sequence of two bad results in 2025.
