Come on, Flamengo! Palmeiras held, Mengão stay top of 2025 Brasileirão | OneFootball

Palmeiras jumps to 69 points with the draw, but Flamengo already has 71

Wednesday (19) started in the best possible way for the Brasileirão. After all, at Allianz Parque, Palmeiras drew 0-0 with Vitória in the 37th round (rescheduled match). This way, the Most Beloved remains at the top of the table, regardless of what happens in the classic Flamengo vs. Fluminense.

With the draw, Palmeiras jumped to 69 points. However, Flamengo already has 71, with one game in hand. So, if they triumph against Fluminense, Mengão will open up a five-point lead, with only four games left until the end of the 2025 Brasileirão.

HOW WAS THE PALMEIRAS VS. VITÓRIA MATCH?

As expected, Palmeiras took control of the match in the first half. In the first 15 minutes, the São Paulo team had as much as 81% possession. However, there were hardly any dangerous plays, as the home side kept insisting on crosses into the box.

Just like Flamengo, Palmeiras suffered with players called up for the FIFA international break. One of them was Vitor Roque, the team’s star. Rested in the first half, the striker came on at halftime and tried to bring more dynamism to the home team’s attack. However, the number 9 couldn’t do anything. Goalless draw and boos at Allianz Parque.

NOW IT’S UP TO YOU, FLAMENGO!

To increase their cushion at the top, only a win matters for Flamengo at Maracanã. The ball rolls at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) for the Fla-Flu classic, with full coverage from Coluna do Fla, on the website and social media. In addition, Premiere, via pay-per-view, will broadcast the clash from the 34th round.
