Vasco da Gama vs Palmeiras: Prediction and odds on the Brasileirão match on May 04, 2025
Vasco will host Palmeiras while still looking for a new boss. Fábio Carille was the fifth victim in six rounds of an increasingly cruel championship for coaches. Palmeiras is one of the few clubs in Brazil that gives coaches time to work, and perhaps that's why it wins more often than the others.

The Cruzmaltino lost 1-0 away to Cruzeiro and dropped to 11th place in the table. The club's position isn't terrible, but pressure from Vasco's fans and the fact that there are several well-known coaches available led to Carille's departure. The club does indeed have a glorious past, but Vasco da Gama today can't fight for titles. Vasco fans won't settle for average results and demand victories. For the time being, Felipe will take charge of the team until a new coach arrives, just as he did last season. Felipe led Vasco to an away draw against Operário in the first leg of the Copa do Brasil third round, in another disappointing performance. The Paraná Série B side caused the Giant many problems. The match with Palmeiras will be played in Brasilia, so the Cariocas will be playing away from home, where they are strongest.
Vasco da Gama: Lineup
Lucas Piton is back from injury, and the left back has already played against Operário. Dimitri Payet is still injured. Felipe should stick with the line-up he used in the Copa do Brasil match.
🔖Vasco starting lineup (4-2-3-1)
Léo Jardim – Paulo Henrique, João Victor, Lucas Freitas, Piton – Hugo Moura, Jair – Nuno Moreira, Coutinho, Rayan – Vegetti
⛔️Out: Payet, Lemos, Estrella, David (injured)

Palmeiras: Form and statistics
Palmeiras lost at home to Bahia in the last round, and it was probably the most surprising result in the league so far. The Verdão was on a run of seven straight wins in all competitions, so the home defeat was unexpected. The Baianos were always very organized, and Palmeiras only managed to be dangerous in the second half. In the last minute, the visitors scored in a beautiful move and gave the Paulistas no chance of recovering. Palmeiras dropped to second place, and Flamengo became the Brasileirão leader. In midweek, Abel Ferrera's team went to Fortaleza to face Ceará in the Copa do Brasil and won 1-0. Captain Gustavo Gómez's header broke the Cearenses' unbeaten run in their stadium. Palmeiras now has a good lead to confirm qualification for the second leg at home and has gained confidence for the match against Vasco.
Palmeiras: Lineup
Palmeiras still has some injured players, notably attacking midfielder Raphael Veiga, but central defender Murilo has recovered from his injury and could return to the starting eleven.
🔖Palmeiras starting lineup (4-3-3)
Weverton – Giay, Murilo, Gómez, Piquerez – Anderson, Ríos, Moreno – Estêvão, Vitor Roque, Torres
⛔️Out: Micael, Mayke, Marcos Rocha, Bruno Rodrigues, Raphael Veiga (injured)
👤Head Coach: Abel Ferreira
