Palmeiras vs Vitoria Prediction: Betting On The “Weaker” Team Today

Palmeiras vs Vitoria: Prediction for the Match on November 20, 2025

Prediction for the Palmeiras - Vitoria clash ahead of the thirty-seventh round of the Brasileiro Serie A. The Big Greens currently rank second and will push their luck to gain all points against Vitoria, who were only able to take one point in the 2-2 duel when the sides last met at the Manoel Barradas.

As the season edges to a conclusion, the traffic in the league’s top region is a close call for the top three, and while the league’s winner remains uncertain, Flamengo, Palmeiras, and Cruzeiro are down to the wire in these last five rounds.

The Big Greens suffered their eighth league defeat last week, in a frantic effort against Santos FC, which ended in an unfortunate loss. While the game had all the markings of a tie, the hosts finally broke the ice in the 91st minute, ending Palmeiras' streak of confidence since 2024. The goal came from a lob into the box, which met a header that laid the ball towards Benjamin Rollheiser, who, unmarked, saw his chance and sent the ball past Miguel, Palmeiras' goalkeeper.

Two losses in a row against Mirassol (2-1) and Santos FC (1-0) finally saw Palmeiras ousted from the league’s lead by hot chasers Flamengo, who capitalised on their recent sloppiness to end their season-long top-spot rivalry.

Palmeiras' stunning record at the Allianz Parque (twelve wins, three stalemates, and two losses) over the last seventeen home games gives fans confidence in a possible strong performance against their recent opponents, whom they tied a point from the earlier clash in Round 18.

The last five games for Verdao resulted in two wins, two losses, and one stalemate.

🏁 Palmeiras: Lineup

The Palmeiras team is bearing the brunt of Vitor Roque’s carelessness on social media, with the star serving a ten-game ban after posting a tiger eating a deer on his Instagram page. From the look of things, he will be banned for the rest of the season, which only has five games left. His absence has been felt tremendously, with two of his banned games so far ending in losses. So far, Abel Ferreira’s replacements, Bruno Rodriguez and Jose Lopes, have not been able to fill his shoes, and all eyes are on the coach, with the fans' patience wearing thin, as their league glory begins to diminish in the final rounds.

🔖 Predicted Lineup (4-3-2-1): Miguel, Jefte-Murillo-Fuchs-Khellven, Moreno-Pereira, Anderson-Allan-Mauricio, J.Lopez

👤 Head Coach: Abel Ferreira

⛔ Out: Lucas Evangelista, Vitor Figueiredo, Paulinho, Weverton

✈️ Vitoria: Form and Statistics

Position: 17th

Stuck in the relegation zone for almost all season, Clube Vitoria plays their thirty-seventh league match in seventeenth position. The 1-0 victory against the Internacional Reds in Round 31 was considered a huge improvement over the 3-1 loss suffered against Cruzeiro in Round 30. Last week, the team forced a goalless stalemate against the wildcards Botafogo, choking life out of the opponents, who were continually neutralized.

So far, Vitoria has not spurred confidence in their travelling games, with one win, five stalemates, and ten losses on the road. Interestingly, the team has lost most of its games this season (10 out of 14) on opposition turf.

Jair Ventura, the fourth manager of the Vitoria team this season, seems to have won the hearts of the board, with recent news indicating that his contract, which originally ran through the end of the season, will be retained in the 2026 season, irrespective of the eventual outcome of the team this season.

🏁 Vitoria: Lineup

Ventura continues to work with his team alongside his staff members, who he brought from Avai FC when he took over in September. So far, the board has eyes on its objective, which was to save the club from relegation. The club was in the 17th spot when he took over.

🔖 Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1): Couto, Ramon-Marcos-Halter, Baralhas-Oliviera, Cantalapiedra-Matheusinho-Erick, R.Lopes

👤 Head Coach: Jair Ventura

⛔ Out: Edu, Fabricio Santos, Lucas Arcanjo, Raul Caceres, Jamerson, Fintelman, Claudinho

🎯 Palmeiras vs Vitoria Match Prediction 20 November, 2025

Numerous active play factors will influence this game. Firstly, Vitor Roque’s absence from the attack frontlines has been evident in their recent goal run, with them scoring two goals in the last three games. The visitors have not had much luck in their away games, but have managed to score in the previous four consecutive matches.

I expect this game to produce very few goals. Palmeiras has been unimpressive on the attack, and Vitoria has been disappointing in the goal-scoring department this season. Also, I’m considering Vitoria to commit more fouls, but get a decent number of corner kicks.
