Palmeiras vs Santos FC Prediction: Victory For The Greens
On November 7, 2025, Palmeiras will face Santos FC at Allianz Parque in Round 32 of the Brasileirão. This match marks the first encounter of the season between the two teams, following a postponed meeting in June.
Santos FC Form and Background
Santos FC currently sits sixteenth with thirty-three points from thirty matches. The team spent over six weeks in the relegation zone but managed to climb out recently. The turnaround began after the dismissal of manager Cleber Xavier, who left following a heavy 6-0 defeat against Vasco da Gama. During his fifteen games, Xavier recorded five wins, four draws, and six losses.
His successor, Juan Pablo, inherited a difficult situation and has improved the team’s performance amid criticism, leading to a much more respectable position by season’s end.
Recent Match Highlights
- Santos FC secured a notable 3-1 victory against derby rivals Corinthians Paulista in the return leg after a 1-0 defeat in May.
- The team narrowly lost to Vitória but rebounded by earning a 2-2 draw against Botafogo in a competitive match.
- Last week, Santos FC fought back to draw 1-1 with Fortaleza, leveling the score after falling behind just before halftime.
"Juan Pablo picked the team from a desperate situation, and since then, has pulled the team through media mockery to simple decency, come the end of the season."
With this resurgence, Santos FC aims to maintain their upward momentum against Palmeiras in this crucial fixture.
