Palmeiras seek win to keep title hopes alive, face Vitória hoodoo | OneFootball

Palmeiras faces Vitória this Wednesday (19th) at 7:30 PM (Brasília time) at Allianz Parque. The Verdão comes from two games without a win against the opponent and was surprised in the last meeting at Allianz.

The last time Palmeiras and Vitória met at the stadium was on July 27, 2024, in the 20th round of the Brazilian Championship. On that occasion, the Bahia team surprised by winning 2-0 and for the first time left with three points against Verdão in São Paulo.

The game also marked the end of a great unbeaten streak for Verdão at Allianz Parque in 2025. After 20 games, Palmeiras lost their unbeaten record at the stadium to the Bahia team.

In the last meeting, the only one in 2025, there was a 2-2 draw in the first round, in August, at Barradão. On that occasion, Palmeiras played with an alternative team, as the match was between the games of the Copa do Brasil round of 16 – Verdão ended up being eliminated by the rival.

The last victory happened in April 2024, in the first round of the 2024 Brasileirão, with a goal by Richard Ríos. Of the starters from that match, only Weverton, Murilo, and Raphael Veiga remain at the club. Among the substitutes, Flaco López also remains on the team. Recall the lineup:

Weverton; Mayke, Luan, Murilo, and Vanderlan; Gabriel Menino, Richard Ríos (Flaco López), and Raphael Veiga (Fabinho); Estêvão (Lázaro), Endrick (Luis Guilherme), and Rony (Naves).

Current Situation

With five rounds to go in the Brazilian Championship, Palmeiras lost to Santos 1-0 last weekend, in a delayed match for the 13th round of the competition, stalled at 68 points, and lost the lead to Flamengo, which is three points ahead in first place.
