The2015 Copa do Brasil Finals were the two-legged final that decided the winner of the2015 Copa do Brasil, the 27th edition of theCopa do Brasil,Brazil's national cupfootball tournament organized byCBF.
The finals were contested in two-legged home-and-away format betweenSantos andPalmeiras, two of the most successful clubs of Brazil. Following a draw to determine the home and away teams for both legs, Santos hosted the first match atVila Belmiro inSantos on 25 November 2015, while the second match was hosted by Palmeiras atAllianz Parque inSão Paulo on 2 December 2015.
Santos won the first leg by 1–0, and Palmeiras won the second leg by 2–1.
