It's Grêmio v Palmeiras! All about the 2026 Copa do Brasil final

It's Grêmio v Palmeiras! All about the 2026 Copa do Brasil final It's all set! On December 6 (Sunday), Grêmio and Palmeiras will face off at Estádio Mané Garrincha in Brasília in the grand final of the 2026 Copa do Brasil. The tournament's second-most successful club with five titles (1989, 1994, 1997, 2001 and 2016), Grêmio—the Tricolor Gaúcho—will be playing in their tenth final as they seek to match Cruzeiro's record of six trophies. Palmeiras, known as Verdão, secured their spot by eliminating Vasco on penalties and also boast a proud Copa do Brasil tradition, with four titles to their name (1998, 2012, 2015 and 2020). Palmeiras' most recent title, in fact, came at Grêmio's expense. Abel Ferreira and Renato Portaluppi were also the coaches back then. Reaching the Copa do Brasil final guarantees each finalist another R$34 million (the amount paid by the CBF to the runner-up), which could rise to R$78 million if they win the title. Both Grêmio and Palmeiras have also secured their places in the 2027 Conmebol Libertadores. The champions will go straight into the group stage, while the runners-up will have to compete in the preliminary knockout rounds. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
