Is there a difference?

Can I interchange the word 'likely' in the sentence "In fact three quarters of graduate vacancies are LIKELY to be snapped up by graduates who already had some work experience." with the word probable, without changing it's meaning?

Hello,

In this context you can exchange the word "likely" for "probable".
