Last Updated on Outubro 6, 2025 11:19 am by Erwin Noguera

The 27th matchday of the Brasileirão delivered some intriguing results, and the standings are now more captivating than ever, with the top two teams locked in a tie at the top of the table and the third contender close behind, eager to join the fray.

Overall, it was a disappointing weekend for the top teams, as only two out of the top five managed to secure victories. This has added to the excitement, as all teams are now fiercely competing for their positions, creating numerous possibilities for the standings to shift for next matchday.

Palmeiras has capitalized on this opportunity, catching up on points and claiming the top spot, thanks to Flamengo being halted in their tracks. This sets the stage for Palmeiras to potentially clinch the title in this final stretch of the season.

In addition, Bahia’s surprising victory, combined with losses for Botafogo and Mirassol, has tightened the race, as the teams in 4th, 5th, and 6th places are now all tied. Their next matches could further shuffle their positions, especially since there is a gap to both the 3rd place and the team currently in 7th.

Brasileirão Matchday 27 Games

Brasileirão - 27ª rodada: Internacional x Botafogo

We initially expected Botafogo to secure a narrow victory in this match, but that was not the case. Internacional took full advantage of being the home team, making a strong showing.

The hosts wasted no time, opening the score in the 9th minute with Alan Patrick becoming the standout player of the night. Despite Botafogo controlling over 60% of possession, they struggled to create significant scoring threats.

The first half went well for Internacional, and they continued their momentum by scoring a second goal early in the second half, with Vitinho finding the net in the 50th minute. This goal shattered Botafogo’s focus and sealed the match with a final score margin of two goals.

Brasileirão - 27ª rodada: São Paulo x Palmeiras

This clash had everyone surprised, as the hosts decided to put the hurt on the (at that moment) second-placed team on the board, scoring a goal in the 15th minute and a second in the 34th minute, to everyone’s surprise, and of course, the home crowd was rallied up.

The visiting team didn’t stop trying to find their way in, though, as the match was quite contested overall, with both teams almost split on possession and the now leaders on the board being a little more offensive in the stats.

This little extra output may have been the key for the visitors’ comeback, as Vitor Roque scored a first one on the 70th minute, followed by Jose Manuel Lopez on the 74th minute, and 15 minutes later Ramon Sosa was able to land the goal required to turn the tables, and then the team locked in their defense to take the 3 points with them right in the end.

Brasileirão - 27ª rodada: Bahia x Flamengo

Bahia surprised Flamengo with a solid defensive strategy and an effective counterattack, which resulted in the only goal of the match. While Flamengo made an effort to remain competitive, it’s surprising that Bahia didn’t extend its lead after Wallace Yan was sent off in the 78th minute. These mistakes could cost them their position at the top of the standings and may have repercussions in their next match.

Brasileirão - 27ª rodada: Cruzeiro vs. Sport

This weekend’s match featured a surprising performance from Sport. Although they didn’t win, their ability to hold third-placed Cruzeiro to a draw was the highlight of the game.

Looking at the statistics, it appeared that Cruzeiro would dominate, as they registered 10 more shots and had 62% of ball possession. However, Derik Lacerda managed to score the first goal for Sport in the 41st minute, which was quite unexpected.

After halftime, the hosts regrouped and equalized in the 59th minute. Despite their efforts, they couldn’t take the lead and ultimately had to settle for a draw against the team at the bottom of the standings.
