Palmeiras is second in the Brazilian Championship, demonstrating a balanced performance throughout the season. However, in recent matches, the team has shown a decline in scoring, scoring only 1-2 goals per game and showing increased caution.
Vitória is at the bottom of the table and is experiencing serious attacking issues. The visitors have scored only 29 goals in 33 matches, reflecting their weak scoring record and a penchant for defensive tactics.
Given the teams' standings and current form, a limited-goals match is most likely. Palmeiras will control the game, but is unlikely to defeat their defensively-minded opponents.
