Analyst Confidence: 4/5
Palmeiras have been the standout team in Brazil’s Serie A, sitting top with 12 wins from 18 matches and only one defeat. Their defence has conceded just 13 goals, while their away record of five wins, three draws and one loss shows they can deliver outside their own stadium. Coritiba were beaten 3-0 by Flamengo in their previous match and now face another of the division’s strongest sides. With Palmeiras carrying the greater quality and consistency, the visitors look good value to collect all three points.
