Neymar plays today? Where to watch Palmeiras x Santos for the Brasileirão today at 9:30 pm

Neymar will not enter the field this Thursday, November 6, 2025, at 9:30 pm, at Allianz Parque, in São Paulo, for the 32nd round of the Brasileirão Betano. The Santos striker remains protected due to the stadium’s synthetic turf, which increases the risk of injury after recently recovering from a problem in his right thigh. Santos, 17th with 33 points, faces leaders Palmeiras without their number 10, who are aiming for a comeback against Flamengo on the 9th.

The absence prevents overload on the knee and quadriceps, areas affected by recurring injuries in 2025. Neymar has accumulated 445 goals and 259 assists in his professional career until November.
