Pedro could beat his 2025 numbers in Flamengo v Palmeiras | OneFootball

Flamengo host Palmeiras at the Maracanã this Saturday (23) in the Brasileirão

The 2026 season has not even reached its halfway point yet, but Pedro is already close to surpassing his number of goal contributions from 2025. Thus, the next chance for the number 9 to achieve that feat will be this Saturday (23), when Flamengo face Palmeiras.

Last year, the Rubro-Negro striker scored 15 goals and provided seven assists in 39 matches. Now, however, the center forward has found the net 18 times and set up his teammates on four occasions over 30 games. Therefore, the two seasons are tied at 22 goal contributions for the player.

Did Pedro play little in 2025?

Last season hit the center forward hard at three different moments. First, the striker began the year recovering from a torn cruciate ligament. Then, Filipe Luís sidelined the player for training poorly. Finally, the top scorer fractured his arm in the closing stretch of the competition.

Does Pedro have a chance to score against Palmeiras?

“9 Bolado” is a real tormentor of the São Paulo side. In his career, the number 9 has been involved in ten goals in 16 matches against Palmeiras. Therefore, the center forward could reach 11 goal involvements against the team in green and 23 this season.

What time is Flamengo vs Palmeiras?

With Pedro available, Flamengo take on Palmeiras this Saturday (23). Kickoff is at 9:00 p.m. Brasília time at the Maracanã, for the 17th round of the Brasileirão.

Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the clash through YouTube, the website, and social media. The match broadcast, however, will be on SporTV (subscription channel) and Premiere (pay-per-view).
