Deportivo Pereira vs Palmeiras Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in the Copa Libertadores on Thursday, 24 August 2023.
Deportivo Pereira are set to host Palmeiras in the first leg of their quarterfinal tie at Estadio Hernán Ramírez Villegas. Deportivo Pereira have fared decently in this competition and overcame Independiente Valle 2-1 on aggregate in the previous round.
Their opponents, Palmeiras, have performed admirably in the competition and defeated Atlético Mineiro 1-0 on aggregate in the round of 16.
This will be marked as the first ever meeting between these two teams.
We are counting on Palmeiras to pull off a win here. They have a fine form heading into this one. Five of their past seven matches, as well as six of their last seven in this tournament, have ended in wins.
On the other side, Pereira’s record over the past few weeks is far from ideal. In their last seven matches, they have won only three times. They’ve had trouble in this competition as well, winning just one in their past four matches.
We don’t expect a flurry of goals in this match. Pereira has only scored two goals in their last four Copa Libertadores matches. Also, four of Palmeiras’ past five matches have ended with under 2.5 goals, along with four clean sheets.
By the looks of things, a low-scoring affair is expected this time out.
Palmeiras are in fine form heading into the match. They have won five of their past seven matches. Furthermore, Deportivo Pereira has had a subpar record going into the match.
A victory for Palmeiras at 1.72 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
For the second tip, under 2.5 goals at 1.66 odds seems very promising. Considering both teams recent goal involvement in their matches and their past results.
