One of the most balanced football leagues in the world arrives at its last 15 rounds. So far we haven’t seen many changes at the top of the table, which was conquered by Palmeiras since the mid-point of the championship.
In all other positions, there was a lot of change. It was possible to observe the growth and recent fall of Corinthians. Also, the meteoric rise of Fluminense, which was only in the middle of the table, but which is already in second place in the tournament.
In the last rounds, it has been interesting to see Flamengo’s resurgence, winning practically all of their games with their second team. Atletico Mineiro’s drop in performance has also been a highlight, as they are the last champions of the tournament and were expected to fight for the title again this year.
At the bottom of the table, it has been possible to see Fortaleza reacting with all their strength and moving further and further away from the relegation zone, which now has Juventude, Atlético Goianiense, Coritiba, and Avaí.
Let’s talk a little about the most important games of round 24, understanding how the teams arrive for these clashes and what are the best guesses in each of the games.

This is the classic desperate game. Avaí (17th) and Coritiba (18th) will play a very important game, which can get one of the teams out of the relegation zone for at least one round. Avaí has one more point than their opponent, but the team needs to do differently from what they’ve been doing if they want to win this match.
Avaí lost 3 and drew 2 of their last 5 games. Coritiba, in turn, won only one of their last 5 games. Coritiba will have the advantage of playing this complicated match in their domains and will need a lot of support from their fans to seek victory against this rival who also needs points.
We believe in a 2-1 victory for Coritiba in this game that will be quite exciting.
Brasileirão Matchday 24 – Fluminense vs. Palmeiras – Betting Odds & Free Pick – Info

Palmeiras will face what should be their last big challenge before the Brasileirão title. The team has already faced Corinthians and Flamengo, but now they will visit Fluminense at Maracanã to prove once and for all that it is the best team in the country and that it does not intend to diminish the advantage of its competitors. We should point out that this game means that el Verdao will be facing the second position in the table for the third time in a row, something that, even if it’s not the first time that happens in world football, is an extremely curious coincidence.
Fluminense is currently second in the championship, as were Corinthians and Flamengo when they faced Palmeiras. The team from Rio de Janeiro will have a great opportunity to keep the emotions in the fight for the title in this match, as winning the game against Palmeiras means reducing the distance to the leader to five points, but losing can make el Verdao the pre-proclaimed champion.
We believe in the victory of Fluminense in this game with many goals: 4-2.

Botafogo and Flamengo do not make up the biggest rivalry in the state of Rio de Janeiro, but this confrontation always attracts the attention of many spectators, due to the number of outstanding games that these teams have already played.
The current moment is completely favorable to Flamengo, as they have won 4 of their last 5 matches, while Botafogo only in 1 of their last 5 matches, being stagnant in 14th place.
Betting on Flamengo in this match is a pretty safe guess, as their second team has been doing high-level displays. Flamengo wins by 3-0.
Let’s take a look at the picks for the other games:
- Goiás 1 x 2 Atlético Goianiense;
- Ceará 1 x 1 Athletico;
- América Mineiro 2 x 2 Atlético Mineiro;
- Bragantino 2 x 1 Ceará;
- Athletico 1 x 1 América Mineiro;
