Palmeiras vs Mirassol Prediction: Palmeiras must win

Palmeiras vs Mirassol: Prediction and odds on the Brasileirão match on July 17, 2025

Palmeiras hosts Mirassol in a game in which the home team stands out as the clear favorite. The Verdão is in fifth place with two matches in hand. Mirassol is in 10th place and also has 11 games played, like Palmeiras.

Palmeiras: Form and statistics

Palmeiras performed well in the FIFA Club World Cup, reaching the quarter-finals, where it was knocked out by Chelsea, the winner of the tournament. Abel Ferreira's team lost 2-1 to the English. Palmeiras' goal was scored by Estêvão in his last game for the club. The 18-year-old will be joining Chelsea, and so his farewell to Palmeiras was precisely against his future team. Palmeiras has signed Paraguayan Ramón Sosa from Nottingham Forest to replace the wonder kid. The fans are worried because, in addition to losing Estêvão from the squad, Paulinho is injured and won't be playing again in 2025. Richard Rios is attracting interest from European clubs and could also leave. Regardless of the market turmoil, the Paulistas have to focus on the Brasileirão to climb the table. Palmeiras has suffered two straight defeats in the league and is five points behind the leader, Flamengo.

Palmeiras: Lineup

Paulinho never fully recovered from the serious injury he suffered last year and had to undergo another surgery. The striker will not play again this season. Palmeiras also has some problems in defense, with several players injured in that sector.

🔖Palmeiras starting lineup (4-3-3)

Weverton – Marcos Rocha, Gómez, Fuchs, Piquerez – Martínez, Ríos, Mauricio – Allan, Torres, Vitor Roque

⛔️Out: Paulinho, Giay, Murillo, Bruno Rodrigues (injured)

👤Head Coach: Abel Ferreira

Mirassol: Form and statistics

The Little Lion is playing in the Série A for the first time and is exceeding expectations, occupying 10th place with two games in hand. Mirassol has recorded four wins, five draws, and has lost just twice, which is remarkable for such a small club. Rafael Guanaes' team has netted 17 goals and conceded 12. Only Flamengo, Cruzeiro, and Botafogo have a higher goal difference. In the last game, Mirassol defeated Sport Recife 1-0 at home, but the match took place on June 1, so we'll see if this long period without competition will influence the team's performance. Palmeiras is undeniably the favorite in this game, but Mirassol will be playing without pressure. The club has been active in this transfer window and has signed Carlos Eduardo, Alesson, and Felipe Jonathan. Yuri Castilho, Clayson, and Matheus Davó have left Mirassol.

Mirassol: Lineup

Rafael Guanaes shouldn't make any significant changes to his usual lineup.

🔖Mirassol starting lineup (4-2-3-1)

Walter – Lucas Ramon, João Victor, Jemmes, Reinaldo – Danielzinho, José Aldo – Negueba, Yago, Gabriel – Edson Carioca

⛔️Out: Matheus Sales, Léo Gamalho (injured)

👤Head Coach: Rafael Guanaes

Palmeiras vs Mirassol match prediction 17 July 2025

Palmeiras has reached the quarter-finals of the FIFA Club World Cup, but now it's time to focus on the Brasileirão and on climbing to the top of the table. The Verdão lost its last two league games to Flamengo and Cruzeiro, the top two teams, and needs to recover the five-point deficit. Mirassol came from the Série B and is having an excellent campaign, occupying 10th place. The Little Lion has only lost twice in the league and plays without pressure, which means it could cause some problems for Palmeiras. Mirassol beat São Paulo 2-0 away this year and will be looking for a good result at the Allianz Parque. Palmeiras can't waste points, so I'm backing the Verdão to win with a maximum of four goals scored to boost the odds.
