The 2023 Brasileirão season is still in full swing, and we have some intense and exciting matches this weekend.
Each matchday becomes much more important now that the tournament is coming closer to its final stretch. The teams must take each match more seriously, as every point can be fundamental to closing the season. We all know that the Brasileirão teams’ mission is to get their ticket to the next edition of the Copa Libertadores de America, besides being champions of the local tournament.
Right now, there seems to be no team that can stand up to Botafogo at the top of the standings. As a result, this leaves only three remaining spots to qualify directly for the Copa Libertadores. Still, nothing is set in stone, and anything can happen, so the second half of the season will be extremely important for everyone.

Why Bet on Palmeiras?
There is no doubt that talking about Palmeiras is synonymous with talking about success. This is one of the most important clubs in the region, and in the last few seasons, they have been playing at an incredibly high level.
In this 2023 Brasileirao season, the Verdão is in second place in the table with a record of 9 wins, 7 draws, and 3 losses, 13 points behind Botafogo in first place. Undoubtedly, the Paulistas’ problems are related to keeping the results since, on several occasions, some matches that seemed to have been secured have gone out of hand and ended with a draw. We cannot stop thinking that the players are simply too confortable after winning everything as of late, so maybe it’s time for some refresments in the project.
Similarly, Palmeiras enters this matchday after an excellent 1-0 home win over Cruzeiro.
Why Bet on Cuiabá?
On the other hand, we have Cuiabá, one of the teams that had been showing an excellent level of play in recent weeks and, thanks to this and four consecutive victories, managed to get out of the bottom of the standings.
However, on the last matchday, in their visit to Paranaense, the Dorado could not display its best level of play and ended up losing 0-2. As a result, their unbeaten run ended at 6 games, and their climb in the standings came to a halt at eighth place in the table.
Now, they wish to return to winning ways in this home match against a formidable opponent such as Palmeiras.
