Palmeiras leads the Brasileirão, but if only the performance against the top six teams were considered, Abel Ferreira’s team would be relegated. After all, against the G-6, the São Paulo side has only one win in seven games, with a 20.83% success rate. On Sunday (19), their rival will be Flamengo, who currently occupy second place.
AGAINST FLAMENGO – SECOND PLACE Palmeiras 0x2 Flamengo AGAINST CRUZEIRO – THIRD PLACE Cruzeiro 2×1 Palmeiras AGAINST MIRASSOL – FOURTH PLACE Palmeiras 1×1 Mirassol AGAINST BOTAFOGO – FIFTH PLACE Palmeiras 0x0 Botafogo Botafogo 0x1 Palmeiras AGAINST BAHIA – SIXTH PLACE Palmeiras 0x1 Bahia Bahia 1×0 Palmeiras
Flamengo beat Botafogo in the first round of the second half of the season, drew two other matches, and lost five. Against the second-placed team, Mengão, they suffered a home defeat, 2-0. Against Cruzeiro, Gabigol’s team came out on top with a 2-1 win at Mineirão.
With the sensation of the Brasileirão, Mirassol, it was a 1-1 draw at Allianz Parque. The only positive record Palmeiras has is against Botafogo, with four out of six possible points. On the other hand, against Bahia, the team led by Rogério Ceni came out on top on both occasions.
Flamengo has a chance to keep Palmeiras’ poor record against the G-6 of the Brasileirão going this Sunday (19), starting at 4pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. In addition to the rival’s bad record in 2025, there’s also the fact that the Rubro-Negro hasn’t lost at home to the São Paulo side since 2015.
So, Flamengo will defend their streaks with live coverage on Globo (open TV), SporTV (cable), Premiere (pay-per-view), and GETV via YouTube. However, the best coverage is from Coluna do Fla, on the website, social media, and YouTube.
