Palmeiras and RB Bragantino to Draw at Half Time
While the home team is in much better form and will probably end up winning this game, Fortaleza is still ahead of them in the standings and they’ve proven this season that they are a serious team. With that in mind, we expect a close, hard-fought duel that will be decided in the second half. Another reason for our prediction is the fact that Fluminense and Fortaleza drew at half time in four of their last five meetings.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
Both teams have scored in just one of the previous five head-to-head duels between Fluminense and Fortaleza, so we don’t expect to see both teams scoring in this match either. That being said, both teams have scored in 55% of Fluminense games this season, while the same is true for 48% of Fortaleza fixtures in the league so far. So, this game could go either way, but we decided to honor the recent tradition in our prediction.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
The last five most recent duels between Fluminense and Fortaleza have all gone under 2.5 total goals, so there’s no reason to expect a different outcome in their next meeting. In addition to this, Fortaleza averaged 2.43 goals goals per game so far in Serie A, while Fluminense averaged 2.18 goals per game in the league this season. Not exactly low averages, but not so high to expect a high-scoring game with confidence.

Palmeiras vs RB Bragantino preview: The most interesting match of the round
One of the most anticipated duels in this round of Serie A is almost here, so let’s take a closer look at both teams right now:
Palmeiras
The curren champions of South America will get to defend their Copa Libertadores title after they reached the final of that competition. In the meantime, Palmeiras is fighting for the title in Serie A as well, although they are currently eleven points behind Atletico Mineiro in the title race. Also, Palmeiras is in poor form at the moment after losing five of their last eight games in the league. The team is also dealing with many injuries and players being on international duty.
RB Bragantino
The fans of Bragantino are currently very happy since their team managed to reach Copa Sudamericana final, a huge success for a team that played in Serie B as recently as a couple of years ago. In addition to this, Bragantino is currently sixth in Serie A, although the team is on a bad run since they failed to win in the last six matches in the league. RB Bragantino is also dealing with a lot of injuries at the moment, which could make it difficult to get a good result against their next opponent.
