Por que apostar no Palmeiras?
Palmeiras has run out of tournaments and has to focus on the Brasileirão. A few weeks ago, they were eliminated from the Copa do Brasil at the hands of Flamengo, and this Wednesday, they lost to Botafogo in the Copa Libertadores in an incredible way, with a goal disallowed in the last play for a handball by Gustavo Gómez.
With no Copa Libertadores in sight, they must now focus 100% on o Brasileirão in their quest to win the championship three times in a row. They have won 2-1 against São Paulo with a goal by José López at minute 90+12, thus ending a four-game winless streak with two defeats.
With 41 points, they are in third place, five points behind Botafogo and four behind Fortaleza, which has a game in hand. Their 19 goals conceded make them the second-best defense in the championship, only behind Internacional (18). However, they have five games conceding goals.
One of the team’s problems has been that Rony is not the lethal striker he used to be and has scored only four goals. The Argentine José López is the team’s top scorer with seven goals, but the big star is the 17-year-old Estêvão, who has just been called up to the Brazilian National Team for the World Cup qualifiers.
Por que apostar em Cuiabá?
Cuiabá’s mission this season was to fight to avoid relegation, and it is not achieving the goal. The Dourado is in the penultimate place with 18 points after four wins, six draws, and eleven defeats.
In their last game, they managed to draw 1-1 with Atlético Mineiro, but before that, they had four defeats in a row, and have only obtained eight out of the last 36 points. Although they are not a bad defense, they have conceded goals in their previous ten games, something they must correct if they want to stay in the first division.
As visitors, they have fared better than at home, taking 12 points out of a possible 30. They have only lost one of their last six away games.
Paraguayan striker Isidro Pitta is the team’s top scorer with seven goals.
Análise Final das Apostas: Palmeiras x Cuiabá
The last time they met was on May 5 this year, and Palmeiras won 0-2 with goals from Lázaro and Estêvão. The Verdão has three wins in a row and six games unbeaten with five victories. In total, they have played seven times, and Cuiabá’s only win was in the first game they had: on August 22, 2021. It was a 0-2 win for the Dourado in São Paulo.
Os números em Troca de Gambila have Palmeiras as the favorite. Their Moneyline shows 1.44, Cuiabá has 8.50, and the draw is at 4.20.
Two teams with very dissimilar realities that are fighting on different fronts. While not the best Palmeiras in recent years, they should have no problem overcoming an opponent that has proven far inferior and has all the credentials to play next season in the second division. Vá para um 0-1.
Go for a win for Palmeiras. If you bet $100 at 1.44 you will gain $44 for a total payout of $144.
