Brasileirão Série A — Matchweek 22
Brasileirão Série A matchweek 22 fixtures: kick-off times, probable line-ups and our analytical prediction for every game.
Gremio vs Sao Paulo
2–1🧠 Grêmio hold a slight edge through home advantage, greater attacking output and São Paulo’s more significant absences, in a match likely to stay below 2.5 goals.
Remo vs Atletico-MG
2–2🧠 Atlético-MG hold a slight market edge, with better recent control and more shooting volume; Remo must offset their absences and very low xG through physical play and efficiency in Belém.
Coritiba vs Chapecoense-SC
2–1🧠 Coritiba have home advantage, a more stable structure and face a fading bottom side, but the low xG figures on both sides point to a controlled, low-scoring win.
Botafogo vs Fluminense
1–1🧠 The derby points towards a low-scoring draw: Botafogo are in the better short-term run and have home advantage, but Fluminense still generate more average attacking volume and the market separates the sides only marginally.
Cruzeiro vs Mirassol
3–1🧠 Cruzeiro have the territory and home advantage to control Mirassol, but the absences of Cássio and three attackers point towards a narrow home win, with under 2.5 goals.
Bahia vs Vasco DA Gama
0–0🧠 Bahia have the stronger structure for controlling territory in Salvador, but Erick Pulga’s absence reduces their ability to break lines and points to a narrow home win in a game expected to stay below 2.5 goals.
Palmeiras vs Internacional
0–0🧠 Palmeiras have the clearer path to victory at home, but a string of defensive absences calls for a safety margin against an Internacional side under table pressure.
Santos vs Atletico Paranaense
0–2🧠 Athletico-PR arrive in better shape both in the table and recently, and can exploit a Santos side generating plenty of attacking volume but facing uncertainty over Neymar and a severely depleted defence.
RB Bragantino vs Corinthians
0–2🧠 RB Bragantino hold a slight edge through home advantage, greater shot volume and Corinthians’ reduced attacking options; the game profile points to a home win in a low-scoring contest.
Flamengo vs Vitoria
2–0🧠 Flamengo hold the technical, territorial and league-table edge, and the gap in attacking output points towards a match with over 2.5 goals despite the absence of four creative and attacking players.
