Palmeiras vs Internacional Prediction & Preview

Preview

As the Brazil Serie A action heats up, football enthusiasts are in for a thrilling encounter when Palmeiras host Internacional at the Allianz Parque on Wednesday, 17th April. Both teams are coming off opening round victories, setting the stage for an electrifying clash in this early part of the season.

Under the guidance of Abel Fernando Moreira Ferreira, Palmeiras have showcased their dominance at home. Their previous meeting with Internacional ended in a convincing 3-0 victory for Palmeiras at this very venue. This performance is part of a broader trend where Palmeiras has emerged victorious in 3 out of their last 5 head-to-head matchups against Internacional, highlighting their recent edge over their rivals.

Both teams kickstarted their campaign with wins; Palmeiras edged out Vitória with a narrow 1-0 away win, while Internacional secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory against Bahia at home. These results reflect both teams' solid form and balanced approach to both offense and defense early on in the season.

Palmeiras boasts an impressive average of scoring 2.4 goals per game when playing on home turf while conceding just an average of 0.4 goals per game in such matches. On the other side, Internacional's away record shows they can find the back of net too but may find it challenging to breach Palmeiras' sturdy defense at Allianz Parque.

The stakes are high as both sides look to build momentum early in Serie A's second round - will Palmeiras continue their winning ways or can Internacional upset the odds?

Bet

Given both teams' current form and historical performances against each other – especially considering how potent Palmeiras have been at home – recommending a bet becomes quite intriguing due to differing factors like potential returns versus chances of winning.

However, based on all available data including goal averages and past match outcomes between these two sides along with considering that Palmeira seems particularly strong when playing at Allianz Parque (scoring an average of more than double goals compared to what International manages away), opting for "Home Win" appears as a solid choice despite its lower odds compared to other options like "Away Win". The fact that bookmakers also favor this outcome (odds set at 1.61) reflects confidence in another successful outing for Abel Fernando Moreira Ferreira’s squad.
