Looking for Corinthians vs. Palmeiras predictions? If so, you’re at the right place!

Dubbed the fiercest rivalry in Brazilian soccer, Corinthians vs. Palmeiras a.k.a. Paulista Derby or Sao Paulo Derby is always an entertaining affair, usually with plenty of goals on both ends. We saw “both teams to score” hit in 6 of their last 10 duels, while the “over 2.5 goals” bet won 7 times.

Palmeiras won the most recent clash between the two Sao Paulo-based rivals, but Corinthians are determined to get their revenge. They’ll have a chance to do it on Monday, November 4 at their stadium, Neo Quimica Arena.

Game Preview

Corinthians are 8-11-12 overall, which accounts for 35 points. They’re dangerously close to the relegation zone, but the good news for “Timão” is that they’ve improved their form significantly over the last couple of weeks.

They’re 3-1-1 in the last five Brazilian Serie A games, and if they continue like that in the remaining seven rounds, they will avoid relegation. More good news is that their schedule is going to get easier after the Sao Paulo derby.

The bad news is that the game with Palmeiras is bound to be difficult. Not only does the 2024 roster of “Verdão” look scary with players like Estevao, Raphael Veiga, and Flaco Lopez, who have 29 goals between them, but Palmeiras is also competing for the title.

They’re currently trailing by 3 points behind Botafogo RJ, meaning that a win on November 4 is a must if they want to stay in the title race.

Corinthians vs. Palmeiras Prediction

We’ve got not one but three Corinthians vs. Palmeiras predictions for you. The first of those is that both teams will score in the 2024 Sao Paulo Derby.

Palmeiras are the highest-scoring team in the Brazilian top-tier, while Corinthians have scored at least a goal in each of their last 7 league games. This is why we also think Monday’s Paulista Derby will see at least three goals in total.

Our final Corinthians vs. Palmeiras pick is that the visitors will win. The thing is that if you compare these two teams player-for-player, Palmeiras is much better.
