Corinthians and Palmeiras faced off early last Sunday evening, August 31, at the Neo Química Arena, in a match valid for the 22nd round of the 2025 Brazilian Championship and ended in a 1-1 draw.

The result left the Alvinegro in 12th place in the national competition with 26 points (six wins, eight draws, and eight losses – 23 goals scored and 28 conceded).

From 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM (match duration), the channel in question recorded an average of 14.4 Ibope points.
