Palmeiras v Internacional Bet Builder Stats & Predictions
Check out today’s picks, with updated betting tips for the weekend, by visiting my website Apostas e Palpites.
Match Odds: Correct Score Prediction
Saturday’s clash points to clear favoritism for Palmeiras, not only for playing in front of their fans at Allianz Parque, but also because of their strong current form, the fluency of their attack, and a more balanced side compared to an Internacional under pressure after several recent setbacks, with a defense that has struggled to contain opposition advances. With full focus and patience in executing their plays, Palmeiras have every chance of securing an important victory for their Brasileirão ambitions.
Palmeiras’ positive run is backed by a six-game unbeaten streak, a stretch in which they scored 11 goals and conceded only 2 — numbers that highlight the team’s balance across all areas. Internacional, on the other hand, have won just 2 of their last 10 matches. They managed to score 11 goals in that period, but conceded 16, underlining the instability of their defensive system.

Goalscorers: Palmeiras dominance expected
With all the favoritism on Palmeiras’ side, the expectation is that the team will be able to impose themselves against Internacional. The clubs are living very different moments: Palmeiras are defending a six-game unbeaten run, with four wins and two draws, while their opponents in the same stretch have suffered four defeats and won only twice.
At home, “Verdão” boast the sixth-best record in the league, while Internacional rank only 11th in away form. Vitor Roque, Mauricio and Flaco López are all in excellent form, directly contributing to 8 of the 9 goals scored by the team over the last five matches, either by finding the net or providing assists.
Jose “Flaco” Lopez to score anytime @ 2.63
Vitor Roque to score or assist anytime @ 2
Mauricio to score or assist anytime @ 2.40
