Palmeiras unbeaten vs Ecuadorians at Allianz Parque under Abel Ferreira | OneFootball

Since the arrival of Abel Ferreira at Palmeiras in 2020, Allianz Parque has become the stage for great performances — especially when the opponent comes from Ecuador. In five matches held at the stadium against Ecuadorian teams, Verdão has five wins in five games, with 16 goals scored and only 3 conceded. More than impressive numbers, two of these thrashings would have been enough to qualify Verdão for the 2025 Libertadores final.

The Unbeaten Streak

Palmeiras 5 x 0 Delfín – 2020

Palmeiras 5 x 0 Del Valle – 2021

Palmeiras 1 x 0 Emelec – 2022

Palmeiras 4 x 2 Barcelona – 2023

Palmeiras 2 x 1 Del Valle – 2024

In this period, the 5-0 thrashings in 2020 and 2021 stand out, results that, in any knockout stage with an aggregate score, would be enough to put Palmeiras in a continental final. The offensive consistency combined with tactical control, a trademark of Abel, has shaped a pattern: the team presses, kills the game early, and prevents any opponent's reaction.

Tactical and Psychological Dominance

Palmeiras' aggressive stance at Allianz Parque is reflected in the number of goals: an average of 3.2 per match. At the same time, the defense remains solid, conceding only three goals during this period.

Challenge

Palmeiras faces its biggest challenge in the Copa Libertadores with Abel Ferreira, as Verdão needs to overturn a 3-0 deficit this Thursday (30th) at Allianz Parque to advance to the final of the continental competition.
