Brasileirão Matchday 22 – Preview and Free Picks

The Brasileirão Matchday 22 is about to start this Saturday, and Goiás vs. Avaí will be the starting game, to open another exciting weekend of Brazilian league encounters. 

Palmeiras went 6 points ahead of Corinthians (second place), but the fight for the best four positions in the league remains intense. Fluminense, Flamengo, and Athletico Paranaense are doing an excellent job, winning difficult away games and earning points every round. 

In the bottom part of the table, Fortaleza is breathing again after a 3-0 win against Internacional, placing them just one point behind Avaí (16º), searching their way out of the relegation zone. 

We will take a look at the main games of this Brasileirão round to understand the teams’ last games and chances of winning.

Where Can I Watch? Paramount+/ViX/Premiere

This is the game of the year! Corinthians vs. Palmeiras is one of the biggest rivalries in Brazil, alongside Flamengo vs. Fluminense and Internacional vs. Grêmio. 

The first against the second, the green and white against the black and white. Two huge clubs from the state of São Paulo. This match gathers so many reasons to watch that it is almost impossible to miss it. 

In a classic game, everything can happen, we all know that. Brazil vs. Argentina, Boca Juniors vs. River Plate. But, talking about competitiveness and better football players, we think Palmeiras has more chances even though the game is at Corinthians’ home. 

We believe in a 2-1 win for Palmeiras.

Flamengo and Athletico will put the second team to play this game. That will happen because they will face each other, a few days later, for the Copa do Brasil, in which they tied 0-0 in the first leg in Maracanã. 

For the Brasileirão, it’s clear that Flamengo has a great second team, with great players such as Vidal, Cebolinha, and Marinho. El Fla should be considered a favorite for this game because it plays, once again, in Maracanã, and against a mixed team of Athletico.

Our pick is a 2-0 win for Flamengo.

Internacional might be still trying to understand what happened last game, when they lost 0-3 to Fortaleza, with one more man since the first half. 

Mano Menezes’ team will need to show much more if they want to impress and beat the great team of Fluminense, which is playing the most beautiful football of Brazil in this season. 

Fluminense beat Cuiabá by 1-0, with another goal from Cano, and finally got into the top 3 positions in the table, getting close to Corinthians. They are just one point behind them.

Fluminense can even become second after this round if they beat Internacional and if Corinthians does not win the game against Palmeiras.

For this nice match at Beira Rio’s stadium, we believe in a 2-1 win for Fluminense.

• Goiás 1 x 1 Avaí; 
• Cuiabá 2 x 0 Juventude;
