São Paulo yet to win as hosts away from Morumbis this season | OneFootball

São Paulo has gained a new home in this final stretch of the season. Due to a series of concerts that Morumbis will host in the coming weeks, Tricolor has adopted Vila Belmiro as the temporary venue for its matches. However, the results in the first two games in Santos did not excite the fans.

With a 2-2 draw against Flamengo and a 1-0 loss to Red Bull Bragantino, São Paulo has yet to win as the home team away from Morumbis in 2025.

A similar situation had already occurred in February, when the team had to play two matches at Estádio Mané Garrincha, also due to concerts at their main stadium. On that occasion, they drew 0-0 with Inter de Limeira and 3-3 with Velo Clube, both in the Campeonato Paulista.

Contrast with Morumbis

This record contrasts with the good performance the team has shown at Morumbis throughout the season. In 21 matches, there were 15 wins, six draws, and six losses in total, across all competitions (62.9% success rate).

Morumbis once again became an important asset for São Paulo in various phases of the season, especially in the Paulistão under Zubeldía and in the initial matches with Hernán Crespo, when the team maintained a good streak of results in front of their fans. Even so, the stadium was also the stage for moments of frustration, such as the elimination in the Libertadores quarterfinals against LDU.

Additionally, Tricolor was defeated in three consecutive matches at Morumbis for the first time in nine years. The streak included: LDU (1-0) in the Libertadores, as well as Ceará (1-0) and Palmeiras (3-2) in the Brasileirão.

Next match at Vila Belmiro

São Paulo will still have the opportunity to secure its first win as the home team away from Morumbis. On the 23rd (Sunday), Tricolor faces Juventude at Vila Belmiro, in a match valid for the 35th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.

The match against Internacional, scheduled for December 3rd, will take place about ten days after the last Oasis concert. However, since the pitch will be quite worn out due to the number of events at Morumbis, São Paulo will likely have to use another stadium, as the plan is to completely replace the playing surface.
