Timão obtained the classification only in the Eliminatori of the Paulist championship. In all the other clashes, Verdon guided the best
With 108 years of history and 22 eliminating clashes in the curriculum, Corinthians and Palmeiras support one of the greatest rivalries of Brazilian football. The balance in decisive duels is remarkable. After all, there are 12 classifications from Palmeiras against 10 from Corinzi. However, a taboo persists. This is because Alvinegro has never eliminated Alviverde in official competitions outside the Paulist championship.
By ignoring the current edition of the Brazilian Cup, which is still in progress, the rivals have faced each other in five eliminating clashes, all in the last century. Palmeiras got the best in two finals of the Rio-São Paulo tournament (1951 and 1993), a Brazilian championship final (1994) and two duels for Libertadores (quarter-finals in 1999 and semifinal in 2000).
In total, there have been ten games in these five clashes, with six wins of Palmeiras, two from Corinzi and two draws. All these clashes took place in round games and with the same stadium which is the stage of the two games: Pacaembu (1951, 1993 and 1994) and Morumbi (1999 and 2000).
In this 2025 Brazilian Cup, the Corinthians came out in front of winning the first 1-0 match at the Neo Chemical Arena. Therefore, the decision of the vacant place will be this Wednesday (06/8), in Allianz Parque.
To advance in the quarterfinals, Palmeiras must win with two differences in goals. If you return the score with a goal of advantage, the controversy will be on penalty. Corinzi plays for a draw or victory to guarantee classification and, breaking, putting an end to a taboo that lasted decades.
