Maurício put Palmeiras ahead in the ninth minute, converting an assist from R. Sosa, then doubled the lead on 19 minutes to leave Coritiba chasing the game from half-time onward. The scoreline held at 0-2 until the hour mark, when Sosa turned provider into scorer, netting from a Joaquín Piquerez assist in the 67th minute to make it 0-3. Coritiba responded almost immediately through Paulo Roberto, assisted by Josué, cutting the deficit to 1-3 a minute later, but there was no further comeback.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Coritiba 20%, the draw 22%, Palmeiras 58%. It finished Coritiba 1–3 Palmeiras.
Palmeiras' rating gap outweighs Coritiba's home ground — Palmeiras are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Palmeiras' 58%. The draw at 22% is helped by a draw-heavy league.
Why Palmeiras at 58%?
Palmeiras sit 376 points higher on our strength rating — 1558 to 1933. Sides with a more than 300-point rating edge on the road won 65.9% of 5,124 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 17–19–64.
Why only 58%?
Brasileirão Série A home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to draws (26.9% vs 24.9% norm) and away wins (24.8% vs 30.2%). Brasileirão Série A homes won 48.3% of 4,362 games vs 44.9% across all 98,229 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why is the draw only 22%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 18.7%. These teams' recent games average 2.5 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,379. Brasileirão Série A runs draw-heavy, adding 2.0 points. The goals environment adds 1.1 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Palmeiras average 16 points more possession, but the rating gap here is 376 points. Our control receipt only exists between near-equals — there it moved results; across a class gap we could not measure a separate style edge, so style scores 0 here. Last 6 between them: Coritiba 2 wins, 0 draws, Palmeiras 4 wins. Most recently Coritiba 0–2 Palmeiras, 3 years ago. Fixture history hasn't carried forward once class is level: past leaders won just 28.0% of 5553 such games — no measurable edge, 0 points.
