Palmeiras vs. Gremio: Match Preview and Betting Prediction
Palmeiras Looking to Extend Unbeaten Run
Palmeiras will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to six matches when they host Gremio in the Brasileiro Serie A on Saturday. The Verdao are currently top of the table, four points clear of second-placed Flamengo. They have won three and drawn two of their last five matches, and will be confident of beating a Gremio side who have lost their last two games.
Gremio Hoping to End Poor Run
Gremio have had a disappointing start to the season, winning just two of their first six matches. They are currently 12th in the table, and will be desperate to end their poor run of form against Palmeiras. The Tricolor have a good record against Palmeiras, winning three of their last five meetings. However, they will need to be at their best to beat a Palmeiras side who are in excellent form.
