The Brasileirão Serie A calendar continues to advance rapidly and, due to the large number of matches that the different teams have had to play during the week, we are already at what will be the halfway point of the 2022 season. Specifically, matchday 19, and the excellent battle for first place in the table has a winner for the moment, Palmeiras.
Palmeiras continues with its devastating pace in the Brazilian championship and, for the first time this season, a team has managed to take more than 3 points of advantage in the first place of the table concerning its closest pursuer, in this case, 4 points that separate the leader with Atlético Mineiro and Corinthians, who are equal in the second place.
One of the great surprises in this half of the season is that Fluminense has been gradually gathering a streak of important victories and, right now, they have managed to establish themselves in fourth place in the standings, equal with 31 points with Paranaense, 1 point behind second place and 5 points behind first.
Meanwhile, at the bottom of the table, the same two teams that have been occupying these positions since the beginning of the season, Fortaleza and Juventude, are still unable to get out of the terrible moment in which they find themselves.
The following is a summary of the best matches you will be able to enjoy on this 19th matchday of the Brasileirão Serie A.

One of the matches that will kick off this 19th matchday of the Brasileirão Serie A will be the one between Botafogo and Paranaense, which will be played this Saturday, July 23, 2022, at the Nilton Santos Stadium, located in Rio de Janeiro, home of Botafogo.
Both teams arrive at the halfway point of the season with completely different situations. Paranaense continues its fight to be at the top of the standings, while Botafogo is in a terrible moment and has lost several positions in the table in the last few weeks.
Paranaense comes into this matchday with a lot of confidence after 4 wins in their last 6 games played. Thanks to this, they have managed to stay at the top of the overall standings and, specifically, tied for fourth place with Fluminense, with 31 points.
Paranaense is coming off a spectacular victory in its last match against Atlético Goianiense, with a score of 4-1.
On the other hand, the home team in this match, Botafogo, is in what would be the worst moment for them in the season. They are currently in 12th place in the standings, after losing their last 3 games in the Brazilian championship.
From fighting to be one of the teams at the top of the table, they are now fighting to stay within the first 12 places, which grants direct qualification to South American international competitions.
Botafogo has just been crushed in its last match by Santos, with a score of 0-2.

The match that will kick off this 19th matchday of the Brazilian Championship will be a very interesting one between Goiás and São Paulo, which will play tomorrow, Saturday, July 23, 2022, at Morumbi Stadium, home of São Paulo.
Although the favoritism towards the home team for this match is big, both teams are not playing at their optimal level of play, so, anything could happen in this match.
São Paulo is one of the teams that has lost the fewest games so far in the 2022 Brazilian championship season, but their lack of effectiveness in creating scoring chances has cost them a total of 10 draws, which means that out of 30 points played, they have been able to score only 10.
–
Los Brancos has not had a bad season and their level of play is very good, but they must improve their offense if they want to return to the top of the standings.
São Paulo is coming from 3 consecutive draws in the Brasileirao, the last one was against Internacional, with a score of 3-3.
On the other hand, we have Goiás, another team that has not had a good season and that, despite being equal in the #12 position with Botafogo, their level of play has left much to be desired in this first half of the season.
Goiás’ current record is 5 wins, 6 draws, and 7 losses, for 21 points out of a possible 54.
El Esmeraldino comes into this match after a difficult defeat in their last match against the resurgent and inspired Fluminense, with a score of 2-3.
Goiás vs. São Paulo Betting Pick: São Paulo

A great match is what we will have this Sunday, July 24, 2022, when Palmeiras receives Internacional at the Allianz Parque, in what will be a match corresponding to the 19th matchday of the Brasileirao Serie A.
Palmeiras continues with its excellent season, and now they are leading the standings with a little slacker, since, as we mentioned, for the first time in the season the team that is leading the Brazilian championship has 3+ points of advantage according to their closest pursuers.
Palmeiras has a spectacular record of 10 wins, 6 draws, and only 2 defeats. Another point to highlight is that they have 29 goals for and only 12 against, being these amounts are the maximum and minimum, respectively so far this season.
Palmeiras comes from a complicated victory in their last match against América-MG, with a score of 1-0.
–
On the other hand, we have another team that has played a very good first half of the season, and they hope to continue their good streak to try to get as close as possible to Palmeiras, Internacional.
Internacional also has a very good record in the season, 7 wins, 9 draws, and 2 losses and, without a doubt, these 9 draws have been determinant for them, since, if they get at least 3 wins in these matches, they could easily be leading the standings.
Right now, Internacional is in sixth place in the general classification table, with 30 points, only 2 points behind second place and 5 points behind first place. Internacional is coming from two consecutive draws in the Brazilian championship, the last one against São Paulo, with a score of 3-3.
Palmeiras vs. Internacional Betting Pick: Palmeiras

Finally, we close this summary with what will undoubtedly be the best match we can enjoy on this 19th matchday of the Brasileirao. This Sunday, July 24, 2022, Atlético Mineiro will host Corinthians at the Mineirao Stadium at 05:00 pm ET.
This match between two of the best teams so far this season is the best way to end this first half of the season. Both teams are tied for second place in the table, just 4 points behind Palmeiras, and will try to get the 3 points no matter what.
Atlético Mineiro continues its unbeaten streak and, thanks to this, they are equal with Corinthians in second place in the table. El Galo has skidded in 2 of their last 3 games where they have been held to a draw, which is why Palmeiras has slipped 4 points ahead of them.
They are coming from an unprecedented and impressive draw against Cuiabá on their last matchday. When it seemed that everything was lining up in their favor, and they managed to score the goal that would give them the victory in the 90+4th minute, the match was extended in such a way that, in the 90+9th minute, Cuiabá was able to equalize the score thanks to Gabriel Piano’s goal.
–
On the other hand, we continue to insist on the extraordinary and consistent season that Corinthians is living, since it is the only team in the Brazilian league that has managed to stay at the top of the standings since the beginning of the season.
Right now, Corinthians knows that it cannot let 3 points slip away in any match if it wants to face Palmeiras in the first place and fight for the champion’s trophy. Although half of the season is missing, Corinthians is one of the great teams that are called favorites to lift the champions’ trophy in 2022.
Corinthians is coming from an excellent victory in its last match against Coritiba, with a score of 3-1.
Atlético Mineiro vs. Corinthians Betting Pick: Atlético Mineiro
