Brazil Serie A Betting Tips: Predictions & Best Bets December 3rd - 5th 2025

Football betting tipster Nathan Joyes has provided his best betting predictions for Brazil Serie A's weekend fixtures focusing on six matches. Read about his best football odds below.

Bragantino vs Vitoria

There's a huge game at Estadio Cicero De Souza Marques on Wednesday evening. Bragantino still aren't safe sitting four points above the relegation zone with two games to play, while Vitoria are just one point above the drop zone.

The hosts arrive into this match on the back of two defeats without scoring - and noticeably a 1-0 home defeat against Fortaleza who are fighting for their lives. And although Bragantino had 18 shots, only three found the target across the 90 minutes.

Vitoria are producing performances - and results - at just the right time. They are unbeaten in their last five, and after failing to win any of their first 13 away games, head into this in a much better mood.

That's because they have beaten Santos, Sport Recife and held Palmeiras in recent weeks. They need just one more positive result, and so my first football tip is to back Vitoria to clinch at least a point on their travels.

Fortaleza vs Corinthians

Another side fighting for their lives is Fortaleza. Unbeaten in eight, Fortaleza have won their last three matches against Bahia, Bragantino and Atletico Miniero. As a result, they are now only one point away from safety.

Corinthians just need one more point to secure their Copa Sudamericana spot next season - although they will likely be banking on that when they faced relegated Juventude in the final round next week.

On the road, they have been rather poor this year, and head into this fixture on the back of three defeats from their last five, only beating Vitoria within those games.

In two of those defeats Corinthians have conceded three goals, and Fortaleza will be confident they can add to that in front of their own fans.

Juventude vs Santos

After Juventude failed to beat Bahia last weekend, their relegation to Serie B was confirmed. With motviation lacking, this hands Santos a significant advantage who are still trying to stay up themselves.

A huge 3-0 win last weekend against Sport Recife has lifted them out of the relegation zone on goal difference with just two rounds left. Neymar, playing with an injury, scored the opener as the former Brazilian captain is desperate to save his boyhood club from only their second ever relegation.

Santos, like many other relegation threatened sides, are getting results. Unbeaten in four, including a 1-0 win against Palmeiras, there's plenty of fight left in them. Playing against an unmotivated side that has just been relegated will give the visitors the edge - and expect Neymar to be in the thick of the action once more.

Atletico Mineiro vs Palmeiras

Palmeiras still have an outside chance at winning the title but they need Flamengo to ultimately lose both of their remaining games.

However, after losing the Copa Libertadores final against Flamengo on Saturday, confidence within the camp is low. It has also been widely reported that Palmeiras are dead on their feet after playing almost 70 matches this season.

Rallying themselves to win an almost impossible title will be tough - and Atletico Mineiro can profit from their misery. Mineiro are winless in five, but they are also unbeaten at home since August, a run stretching over 11 matches.

Galo have now had some time to process their Copa Sudamericana defeat, and they know a win would guarantee them a spot back in that competition next season. Back Mineiro to secure a spot against a deflated, tired Palmeiras side.

Flamengo ve Ceara

Fresh off the back of their Copa Libertadores success, Flamengo know that a win will guarantee them the Brazilian title. And having won their last five matches at the Maracana, scoring 13 goals in the process, Filipe Luis' fans will certainly be in a party mood on Wednesday evening.

Not only do they score for fun at home (45 in 18 matches), but they have also only conceded eight goals. Their defensive record has been by far the best in the league, and another clean sheet awaits the soon-to-be crowned champions.

Although Ceara drew with them in the reverse fixture 1-1, they will know they are playing them at the wrong time. No one is going to ruin their title winning opportunity.

But Ceara, who are three points above the relegation zone, face Flamengo and Palmeiras in their final matches - and they have their own league status to hold onto.

Flamengo should win - but adding in under 4.5 goals may be a more sensible play. Ceara will sit deep to look to claim a point, and there's no denying Flamengo will have some tired legs after a long gruelling season.

Cruzeiro vs Botafogo

We sign off with a mouthwatering tie between 3rd and 5th, with Botafogo still in need of points to secure a Copa Libertadores group stage spot.

They are already in the qualifying rounds at the very least, but Davide Ancelotti won't want to risk that and add more fixtures to their schedule at the beginning of next campaign.

Botafogo will have a mammoth task to beat Cruzeiro - a side currently 11 unbeaten - and a team that also beat them 2-0 earlier in the season.

At home, Cruzeiro haven't lost since August, winning seven and drawing just two. Botafogo, on the other hand, have only won two from their last 10 away games against Ceara and already relegated Juventude.

With just one win to their name since August, it's difficult to know whether Botafogo can stop Kaio Jorge - who has scored 21 goals and looks likely to win the golden boot.

He scored a brace last time out at home, and he can add to that tally against a fragile looking defence.
