Ceara vs. Internacional (Wednesday, 11.00pm)
In search of back to back victories for the first time this term, Ceara welcome Internacional to the Estadio Castelao on Wednesday in round 24 of the Brasileirao.
On the other hand, the away side will be looking to bounce back from a defeat last time out which brought an end to their eight-game unbeaten streak.
We say: Ceara 2-1 Internacional
Ceara have been a real force to reckon with in home games this term, while Internacional have not done particularly well on the road. We are backing the home side to come away with all three points in what should be a pulsating affair.

Sport vs. Juventude (Wednesday, 11.00pm)
Sport Recife will look to take further steps to moving outside of the Brasileiro relegation zone when they play host to Juventude on Wednesday evening.
While the visitors currently sit in 15th position, defeat at Ilha do Retiro will see their opponents cut the gap to four points.
We say: Sport Recife 1-1 Juventude
Sport will be full of confidence given the magnitude of their victory at the weekend. However, that may not necessarily play into their favour with Juventude more likely to be content with a share of the spoils from this fixture.

Chapecoense vs. Atletico Mineiro (Wednesday, 11.00pm)
Wednesday will feature a matchup of first versus worst in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A as Chapecoense welcome Atletico Mineiro into Arena Conda.
Chape will enter this game at the bottom of the table with only 11 points, while Mineiro have a 10-point cushion atop the standings after pulling out a 1-0 win over Internacional this past weekend.
We say: Chapecoense 0-3 Atletico Mineiro
No surprise here, these teams are separated by 38 points for a reason, Atletico have conceded the fewest goals, with Chape allowing the most (36).
There have only been seven games in which Mineiro have not come away victorious, and they play three of those teams over the next week so that prior history should have served as a lesson for them not to take any opponent lightly.

Atletico GO vs. Athletico PR (Wednesday, 11.00pm)
Atletico Goianiense and Athletico Paranaense meet in Brasileiro on Wednesday evening with both teams locked on the same points after 22 matches.
The two teams sit in 10th and ninth place respectively, Athletico PR holding a slender advantage due to scoring nine goals more than their next opponents.
We say: Atletico Goianiense 1-1 Athletico Paranaense
Taking everything into consideration, can we really predict anything other than a draw? Despite the carrot of potentially being able to move into seventh position, we feel that these two teams will ultimately cancel each other out in a competitive game.

Bragantino vs. Flamengo (Thursday, 12.30am)
Bragantino have a chance to potentially move back into a top-four position in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A with a victory over Flamengo on Wednesday at Estadio Nabi Abi Chedid.
Each side recently moved a step closer to continental glory, with Bragantino making it to the final of the Copa Sudamericana, while Flamengo will have the opportunity to capture their third Copa Libertadores title after eliminating Barcelona SC in the previous round.
We say: Bragantino 1-3 Flamengo
Bragantino seem to have rediscovered how to score but so have the defending champions, who have 14 goals in their last five matches in all competitions.
It appears that Flamengo are starting to hit their stride both in front of goal and on the defensive side which could make life very difficult for Braga.

Fluminense vs. Fortaleza (Thursday, 1.30am)
Fortaleza will need a victory on Wednesday to guarantee they remain in a top-four position in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A table when they head to the Maracana for a date with Fluminense.
Flu are riding a five-match unbeaten run at home in league play heading into this game, while Leao do Pici are hanging onto the fourth position in the standings despite falling 3-0 to Atletico Goianiense.
We say: Fluminense 1-0 Fortaleza
Fluminense seem to be playing with a lot more confidence and are progressing steadily up the standings, and they are starting to buy into the way Marcao likes them to play.
Fortaleza have struggled to score goals in recent weeks, being held off the scoresheet in four of their previous six league fixtures, including conceding four at Bahia, so while they have competed harder in their road games, they have not done enough to earn many positive results.

America Mineiro vs. Palmeiras (Thursday, 1.30am)
Aiming to stretch their run of games without a defeat to seven matches, America Mineiro play host to Palmeiras at the Arena Independencia on Thursday.
Meanwhile, the visitors have failed to win any of their last four games in all competitions and will be keen to put an end to that dismal run.
We say: America Mineiro 0-2 Palmeiras
The away side have already exhibited their superiority once this season already and have the upper hand heading into this one. We fancy them to come out on top in a relatively comfortable manner.

Gremio vs. Cuiaba (Thursday, 1.30am)
Gremio have an opportunity to climb out of the relegation zone in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A on Wednesday when they host Cuiaba at Arena do Gremio.
The side from Porto Alegre have dropped their last two league fixtures, while Dourado are scoreless in back-to-back games as they sit in 11th place after 23 matches.
We say: Gremio 1-1 Cuiaba
These two teams are struggling at the moment, while neither side are particularly potent in attack, with Cuiaba scoring 23 goals so far and Gremio with 18.
More often than not, these teams do not do enough to win or lose a game, so a draw could be the most likely outcome to this match.
