Brasileirão Matchday 5 Weekly Picks Betting Odds

5ª rodada do Brasileirão: Corinthians vs. Sport Recife

Both teams are struggling at the start of the season. Corinthians had a decent start after a draw and a win in their first two games. However, their performance is in free fall, as they arrive this fifth matchday after two consecutive losses.

Como resultado, they are in 14th place in the standings with only four points out of a possible 12, so this match will be key for them to get into winning ways. Corinthians is coming off a 2-0 home loss to Fluminense.

On the other hand, Sport Recife has had the worst start of the 2025 season in this Brasileirão. The team is last in the standings with only 1 point out of a possible 12, which they got in their first match against São Paulo with a 0-0 draw.

From there on, the team has not been able to take off and accumulated three defeats in a row, the most recent against Bragantino at home, with a score of 0-1.

Corinthians should take the three points in this match if nothing strange happens.

Corinthians vs. Sport Recife Betting Pick: Corinthians

5ª rodada do Brasileirão: Vasco da Gama x Flamengo

Vasco da Gama has surprised many by having a positive start to the season, positioned in seventh place in the table with six points, coming from two wins in four games. They also have a negative scoring record with six goals for and seven against.

The team started very well, beating Santos 2-1, then lost to Corinthians 0-3. In the third match, they recovered by crushing Sport Recife 3-1, but this week, they could not beat Ceará and lost 0-1.

On the other hand, Flamengo is one of the great favorites to fight for the championship trophy of this 2025 Brasileirao season. The team started this season with all its power, accumulating one draw and three victories. As a result, they are sharing the lead in the table with Palmeiras.

Flamengo has not faltered so far. Despite that 1-1 draw against Internacional to start the season, they bounced back to beat Vitória (2-1), Grêmio (2-0), and most recently Juventude (6-0).

That said, our winner’s chip is undoubtedly for Flamengo.

Vasco da Gama vs. Flamengo Betting Pick: Flamengo

5ª rodada do Brasileirão: Grêmio x Internacional

Grêmio had a good run in the 2024 season, and we expected the same for 2025. However, things have not gone the way the team would have hoped. Right now, Grêmio is 17th in the standings, holding a terrible record of one win, three losses, three goals scored, and nine conceded.

They need urgently to reinforce their defense. Otherwise, they will continue to lose games in subsequent matchdays. After a win in their first game of the season, Grêmio has lost three in a row, the most recent being a 1-4 defeat against Mirassol.

On the other hand, Internacional is living in a similar situation, but with the difference that they have only lost one game in the season. The team is in tenth place in the table, with a record of one win, two draws, one loss, four goals for, and two against.

Internacional has a squad ready to fight against the best teams in the Brasileirão, but they gave too much away in their most recent match against Palmeiras and ended up losing with a score of 0-1.

A tight match is expected, with both teams having few chances to score. As a result, our prediction is a 0-0 draw on the scoreboard.

Grêmio vs. Internacional Betting Pick: Draw

5ª rodada do Brasileirão: Fortaleza x Palmeiras

Fortaleza has a great squad of players, which made us think that they would be higher in the table right now. However, with a record of one win, two draws, one loss, four goals scored, and three conceded, they are currently ranked #12.

Fortaleza needs their offense to wake up to win more games and climb up the standings. The team is coming off three straight games without a win, the most recent being a 1-2 loss to Vitória.

On the other hand, Palmeiras is the opposite side of the coin. The Verdão are at the top of the standings after a record of three wins and one draw in the four matches they have played. In addition, the team has a record of five goals for and one against, clearly demonstrating that a defense can win matches and championships.

If Palmeiras had a more lethal offense, we do not doubt that they would win many consecutive matches from now on. Likewise, despite not being very offensive, this pace of play is helping them stay at the top of the standings.

For this match, our prediction is a 2-0 win for Palmeiras.
