Match Preview

Sunday’s Brasileiro Série A clash at the Allianz Parque pits two of the league’s more entertaining sides against each other in an exciting looking Brazilian football fixture. Palmeiras are handily placed in 4th position as we approach the final few weeks of the season and the Verdao will have their sights on Gremio in second spot who are just three points ahead of them in the table.

Coming into today’s Palmeiras vs Flamengo preview, the club based in Sao Paulo have won just once in their last four matches. Interim boss Alberto Valentim will have been left extremely frustrated at his side’s loss to Vitória in their most recent fixture, having navigated tougher games against Corinthians, Cruzeiro, and Gremio just before that. The Verdao remain the top goal scorers in Série A this season, smashing in an impressive fifty-one goals in 2017.

The away team’s form draws some parallels with their opponents ahead of our free Palmeiras vs Flamengo betting tips. They too have won just once in four and have played Cruzeiro and Gremio in their quartet of games. Their 2-0 win over Cruzeiro on Wednesday, helped by goals from Everton and Real Madrid bound Vinicius Junior, feels like a big moment and the Mengão can close the gap on their adversary to one point should they come away from the Allianz Parque with the points on Sunday. The Brasileiro Série A football odds for today suggest that getting that win could prove tricky, however.

The home side are usually extremely potent at home, though they have drawn two of their last three games in front of their own passionate fans.
