Vitoria vs Palmeiras
📖 The Preview
Vitoria are sitting comfortably mid-table with nothing really to play for, while Palmeiras are right in the thick of a title race and desperate for three points. That difference in hunger alone tells you a lot. Vitoria are also badly stretched with Camutanga, Dudu, Edu, Nathan Mendes, R. Ramos and Anderson all missing through injury, which is a serious dent to their squad. Palmeiras have enough quality to nick a couple of goals here, and though Vitoria should grab one of their own, the visitors have too much riding on this to let it slip.
