Palmeiras
- Palmeiras will not be happy to have gone without a win in their last five games but they have been playing some tough opponents.
- A 0-1 home defeat to Flamengo RJ in the Copa Libertadores followed by a 0-0 away draw with Atletico Mineiro in Serie A leaves Palmeiras winless in their last 5 games (D3, L2).
- Palmeiras are 2nd with 70 points from 36 games in Serie A 2025.
- For this match, our Ceara SC CE vs Palmeiras betting tips suggest keeping an eye on Palmeiras' strong away record, as they have won nine of their 17 away games in Serie A 2025 (D2, L6) averaging 1.47 goals scored per game and 1.24 goals conceded per game.
- Under Abel Ferreira, who has been at the club since November 2020, Palmeiras employ a three at the back formation with wing-backs that allows them to build play from the back, rotate their players into advanced positions and play with high-intensity pressing, but only when the trigger is right.
Ceara SC CE

Betting Insights
- This game has the potential to be very different as we have a possession-based team with dynamic wing-backs and a pressing system taking on a team with a compact defensive shape, playing with a deep line, low block, counter-attacking strategy.
- Palmeiras are the 2.19 favourites and Ceara SC CE are 3.57 in the win markets which is a large disparity for a team who are just 27 points above the other team in the table, and that's a crucial factor in the Ceara SC CE vs Palmeiras prediction.
Prediction
A draw looks a decent bet at 3.27 and both teams to score looks like a great opportunity at 2.0 .
