Sport Recife vs Internacional Prediction and Betting Tips | May 25th 2025
Sport Recife will host Internacional at the Ilha do Retiro on Sunday in the 10th round of the 2025 Brasileirão Serie A campaign. The hosts will be desperate to get their first league win of the season and will be looking to move from the bottom of the table.
Recife suffered a 2-0 defeat to Ceara last time out to take their winless run to eight games and leave them with just two points out of an obtainable 27. The newly-promoted side have had a nightmare start to the season and will need to turn things around soon if they are to avoid falling back into the second tier.
Internacional are eight points clear of Sunday's hosts but have also had a poor start to their season with only two wins so far. Clube do Povo, needed a 78th minute equalizer to earn a point in a 1-1 draw against new boys Mirassol in their last league outing and will be desperate to string together a run of good results to move higher up the table.
