Palmeiras take on the visitors Corinthians at “Allianz Parque” in the round 13 of the Brazilian Serie A. The game will be played in Sao Paulo on Thursday, July 13th.
Palmeiras lost their last two clashes in this season: 0:1 to Barcelona SC in the Copa Libertadores and 1:3 to Cruzeiro in the Serie A. As a result, Palmeiras settle on the fifth place in the Serie A standings with 19 points taken and 16-12 goal difference being 13 points behind the leader and their upcoming rival Corinthians. At the home ground “Porcos” picked up 13 points with nine goals for and one goal against in five matches. Palmeiras’ unbeaten home run consists of 25 encounters.

This season Corinthians have not been defeated across 26 clashes in a row since the mid-March i.e. for more than four months. The key factor of “Coringaos”’ success is their solid play in defense as the team conceded only one single goal in seven matches. Corinthians have lost only four points in 12 games in the elite division allowing the side to feel comfortable in its leader status with 32 points earned and 21-5 goal difference. On the road “Coringaos” gained 13 points with eight goals for and two goals against in five encounters.
Last four head-to-heads between Palmeiras and Corinthians have finished with under scored goals. Taking into consideration the teams’ competitive forms in this season’s Serie A, I believe that there won’t be many goals scored this time as well.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
