Why Bet on Athletico Paranaense?
Athletico Paranaense’s start in the Brasileirão has not been the best, as they are 9th with 19 points, but the positive streak they are on under new coach Wesley Carvalho could allow them to join the fight for the title if they have a good performance at home.
Their last match in the Brasileirão ended in a 2-1 victory over Corinthians and at home they are a strong team, having won five out of six games, conceding only five goals and scoring 10. They are also coming off a 3-0 win over Alianza Lima in the Copa Libertadores, where they topped their group with 13 points.
Striker Vitor Roque, who has scored in four matches in a row, with a total of five goals, deserves a separate chapter. He has just scored a brace in the Copa Libertadores and is close to moving to Barcelona.
The Furacão will have one injury casualty, namely left-back Fernando, who has been replaced by Ze Ivaldo, as the team has switched to playing with three central defenders and two wingers. Another casualty is striker Willian Bigode, but he had been a substitute.
Why Bet on Palmeiras?
Palmeiras is going through a bad patch in the Brasileirão, having lost 1-0 in a key match against leaders Botafogo. However, in the Copa Libertadores, the team from Sao Paulo has won five consecutive matches, finishing top of its zone with 15 points.
Abel Ferreira’s team was in second place from matchdays 4 to 11, but its two defeats now place them in fourth place, eight points behind leaders Botafogo. However, the Verdão has proved to be a regular visitor, with two wins, three draws, and one defeat.
In terms of goals, the player to watch in Palmeiras is Arthur, who has four goals in the Brasileirão. However, he has three games without scoring.
Palmeiras has lost Eduard Atuesta, Marcos Rocha, and Jailson Mosquera, but none of them has been an important part of the starting team.
