Palmeiras defend unbeaten run v Red Bull Bragantino | OneFootball

Palmeiras faces Red Bull Bragantino this Sunday (26) at 6:30 p.m. (Brasília time) in the 13th round of the Brazilian Championship, with an important advantage: their recent unbeaten run in this matchup.

Verdão has not lost to this opponent in six matches — four wins and two draws since October 2023. The last defeat came in the second half of that year’s Brasileirão.

On that occasion, Palmeiras, which fielded an alternative lineup ahead of the Copa Libertadores semifinal against Boca Juniors, was beaten 2-1, with goals from Eduardo Sasha and Eric Ramires in Bragança Paulista. Endrick scored for the green-and-white side.

Since then, the teams have faced each other six times, including matches in the Paulista Championship (2024 and 2025) and the Brasileirão (2024 and 2025), with Palmeiras holding the edge.

A direct clash at the top of the table

This Sunday’s match will be played at Estádio Municipal Cícero de Souza Marques and carries direct weight in the battle for the top spots in the standings.

Palmeiras is aiming for a win to keep its good run going and try to extend — or at least maintain — its six-point lead over second-place Flamengo.

Bragantino, meanwhile, is looking to cut the gap and move closer to the top of the table in a direct showdown that could shake up the upper part of the championship standings.
