Palmeiras are set to host Cruzeiro at Allianz Parque for their upcoming league fixture. Palmeiras enter the contest following a string of mixed performances. They sit fourth in the table after a 2-1 defeat to Fluminense in their previous league match.
Their opponents, Cruzeiro, come into the game with a series of subpar results. They remain eleventh in the standings following a 0-0 draw with Botafogo last time out.
The last time these two clubs met was in December 2019. Palmeiras managed to deliver a 2-0 win that day.
In the last ten meetings between the two teams. Palmeiras has won three times, there have been four draws, and Cruzeiro has won three times.
However, Palmeiras are on a three game winning streak against this opposition.
We are counting on Palmeiras to pull off a win here. They have a fine home record heading into this one. Five of their eight home league matches this season have ended in victories.
Cruzeiro, on the other hand, are currently struggling for form. They haven’t won any of their past four matches.
We expect goals in this match. In each of Palmeiras’s last three league matches, there have been more than 2.5 goals scored. Also, five of Cruzeiro’s eight away league matches this season have ended with over 2.5 goals.
In addition, three of the last five h2h meetings between these two at this ground have had over 2.5 goals. By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this time out.
Palmeiras have a fine home record heading into the match. They have won five of their eight home league matches this season. They also have a great recent record against Cruzeiro. Furthermore, Cruzeiro has had a mediocre form going into the match.
