Palmeiras vs Santos FC Prediction: Victory For The Greens
The Round 32 match of the Brasileirão will feature Palmeiras facing Santos FC at Allianz Parque on November 7, 2025. This is their first head-to-head of the season since their previous encounter in June was postponed.
Current Form and Context
Santos FC sits in sixteenth place with thirty-three points from thirty games. After spending over a month in the relegation zone, the club has finally moved out of it thanks to improved performances under new leadership.
Managerial Changes
Following a devastating 6-0 defeat to Vasco da Gama, manager Cleber Xavier was dismissed after a short period in charge. During his fifteen games, the team managed five wins, four draws, and six losses. His successor, Juan Pablo, took over a struggling squad and gradually restored their form and morale.
Recent Performance
Under Juan Pablo’s guidance, Santos FC achieved an important 3-1 victory against rivals Corinthians Paulista, avenging their earlier 1-0 loss in May. The team narrowly lost to Vitoria but then drew 2-2 against Botafogo in a fiercely contested match.
Most recently, Santos earned another point in a 1-1 draw with Fortaleza, managing to level the score in the 74th minute after conceding shortly before halftime.
“It was impressive to see Santos FC win satisfactorily against their derby rivals Corinthians Paulista in the 3-1 return leg.”
Author’s Summary
Santos FC’s gradual recovery under Juan Pablo hints at resilience, but facing a strong Palmeiras squad at Allianz Parque will demand more than just determination.
