Corinthians will face Palmeiras in round 22 of the Brazilian championship. Check the teams’ conditions and expert betting tips. Several betting options are available!

Corinthians has been excellent this campaign. They have managed 39 points in 21 rounds and sit second in the table, six points behind the leading side Palmeiras. However, Corinthians hasn't shown much brilliance in recent matches. They lost twice to Flamengo in the Libertadores Cup quarter-final with a total score of 0:3, and in between those matches, they failed to beat the humble Avai (1:1).

Palmeiras is firmly in the lead in the Brazilian championship. They are now six points ahead of second-placed Corinthians, and a draw in this meeting would probably satisfy them. In contrast to their opponent, they didn't drop out of the Libertadores Cup. They beat Atletico Mineiro in the quarterfinals (2:2, 6:5, penalties). Palmeiras is now ten matches clear of defeat.

A meeting between the two leaders in the Brazilian championship, where we won't get into the outcome. Palmeiras has looked better than their opponents, but Corinthians will give 100%. On average, the opponents are scoring more goals per game this season, so we expect them to score one each in an equal contest. Prediction: Both teams will score.
