Corinthians vs. Cruzeiro (Wednesday, 2.00pm)
Seeking a fifth consecutive victory in the Brasileiro Serie A, Corinthians play host to Cruzeiro on Wednesday, on matchday 34 for both teams from Corinthians Arena.
Before the international break, the Tatuape club came from behind to defeat Vitoria 2-1, while Cruzeiro beat Criciuma by that same score.
We say: Corinthians 2-0 Cruzeiro
Corinthians possess some elite attacking players who are beginning to gel as a unit, and we believe their momentum will propel them to another triumph against an inconsistent Cruzeiro side.

Bragantino vs. Sao Paulo (Wednesday, 7.30pm)
Relegation-threatened Bragantino can end a lengthy winless run in the Brasileiro Serie A on Wednesday when they host Sao Paulo at Estadio Nabi Abi Chedid.
Last Saturday, Braga played to a 0-0 draw with Atletico Goianiense, putting them a point below the relegation line, while Sao Paulo are sixth following a narrow 2-1 triumph versus Athletico Paranaense.
We say: Bragantino 0-1 Sao Paulo
Bragantino are in a tailspin at the moment and are understandably frustrated, and we believe that will continue against a Sao Paulo side who appear to be peaking at the right time.

Athletico PR vs. Atletico GO (Wednesday, 7.30pm)
Both in different states as they aim to avoid relegation, Athletico Paranaense and Atletico Goianiense will lock horns at Ligga Arena on Wednesday night for a Brasileiro clash.
The Red and Black managed a narrow home victory last time out in the top tier, whilst the Dragon were frustratingly held to a share of the spoils at their base.
We say: Athletico Paranaense 2-0 Atletico Goianiense
After a solid home success over Atletico MG last time out, Athletico Paranaense should be confident of putting the final nail in the coffin of Atletico Goianiense's survival dreams.
The Dragon have been extremely poor travellers across 2024, and we cannot envisage the visitors managing a miraculous victory at Ligga Arena.

Criciuma vs. Vitoria (Wednesday, 7.30pm)
Both aiming to boost their chances of avoiding an unthinkable relegation, Criciuma and Vitoria will clash at Estadio Heriberto Hulse for a Brasileiro battle on Wednesday evening.
Tigre are enduring a worrying winless streak as they head into this all-important match, whilst the Red and Blacks are looking to get back to winning ways after defeat last time out.
We say: Criciuma 1-2 Vitoria
With major absentees from their backline due to injury and suspension, we are expecting relegation-threatened Criciuma to struggle on home soil on Wednesday evening.
Vitoria have produced some promising performances over the past four matches and should be confident of putting Tigre to the sword during this battle.

Bahia vs. Palmeiras (Wednesday, 9.00pm)
Looking to rebound from a five-game winless streak, Bahia are set to host title hopefuls Palmeiras at the Arena Fonte Nova in the Brasileiro on Wednesday.
The hosts are eighth in the league table with 46 points from 33 matches, while the visitors are in second place with 64 points, trailing top of the standings by four points.
We say: Bahia 1-2 Palmeiras
With the hosts winless in their last five matches, including four losses, and the visitors determined to close the gap on league leaders Botafogo, we predict a Palmeiras victory in this one.

Gremio vs. Juventude (Wednesday, 10.00pm)
With five games of the season remaining, Gremio will meet Juventude at the Arena do Gremio on Wednesday in a crucial contest at the bottom end of the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A table.
The visitors currently sit 17th in the final relegation place, while their hosts find themselves 12th but only two points better off.
We say: Gremio 2-1 Juventude
With the visitors boosted by a crucial win last time out and aiming to leapfrog their hosts and escape the bottom four with another victory on Wednesday, we anticipate a tight and hard-fought contest.
Gremio do have the quality to hurt Juventude, though, and they will fancy themselves to move further clear of the drop zone with a win on home turf.

Cuiaba vs. Flamengo (Wednesday, 10.00pm)
Cuiaba will welcome Flamengo to the Arena Pantanal on Wednesday for an important game at both ends of the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A table.
The hosts sit eight points adrift of safety with just five games remaining, while their visitors find themselves fourth and four points behind third spot.
We say: Cuiaba 0-1 Flamengo
Given the hosts' record at both ends of the pitch this season and the visitors' long list of absentees, we can only envisage a low-scoring contest on Wednesday.
Even without the majority of their key attackers, Flamengo should have the quality to find a decisive goal at the Arena Pantanal and get past a struggling Cuiaba side who have not scored since early October.

Atletico Mineiro vs. Botafogo (Thursday, 12.30am)
In a warm-up for the upcoming Copa Libertadores final at the end of the month, Atletico Mineiro are set to take on fellow finalists Botafogo in the Brasileiro on Tuesday.
The hosts are 10th in the league table with 42 points from 33 matches, while the visitors are top of the standings with 68 points from their 38 games.
We say: Atletico Mineiro 0-2 Botafogo
The hosts are experiencing a dismal run of results heading into this game, without a win in their last seven, while the visitors are without a league defeat in their last 11, leading us to believe Botafogo will win here.
