Palmeiras Sport Recife betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This confrontation tends to be somewhat unbalanced, considering that the home team has one of the best squads in Brazil and is campaigning better than the away one which has only medium squad and campaigns without much brightness. In addition, Palmeiras are undefeated in their stadium for Serie A and even in the game in which the team drew, they was far superior to the opponent. Sport, meanwhile, beat only the last placed Paraná Clube and were defeated with property in the 2 occasions that faced teams of more quality where they failed to score a single goal in these 2 setbacks. Given these factors, we believe Palmeiras will not find it difficult to conquer the 3 points in this match.

Preview
Palmeiras and Sport Recife meet at Allianz Parque, in a match for the 7th round of the Serie A. The head‑to‑head history at this stadium, favours the home team, since in the last 3 head‑to‑heads they won 2 and lost 1. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Serie A, on 16‑11‑2017, Palmeiras won by (5‑1). Deyverson (57' and 79' ), Luan Garcia (64' ), Dudu (90' ) and Keno (90' ) scored for Palmeiras and Diego Souza (84' ) for Sport Recife. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Palmeiras

The home team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 11 points won, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Corinthians, by (1‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Bahia, by (3‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 26 goals scored and 7 conceded; against 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 25 goals scored and 11 conceded. In their last match, for the Copa do Brasil, they got a home tie against América Mineiro by (1‑1). In the last 10 home matches Palmeiras has won 6, tied 3 and lost 1.

Palmeiras have been making a reasonable Brazilian Championship where they are at the top half of the table, but the team can yield more, since they have one of the best and most expensive squads in Brazil and are considered one of the favorites to the title. The team has an attack that can yield more, since it has scored only 8 goals, being the seventh best of the competition, less that is expected by the great quality of their athletes, while the defense, in turn, has presented great solidity, suffered only 3 goals and is the least leaked. 
Playing at home, as the match on Saturday, Palmeiras accumulated 2 wins and 1 draw, and in the match that ended in equality, were much superior and ran into great night of the opponent's goalkeeper and it is worth noting that the team have not conceded goals in this condition, showing again a strong defensive force, being a very organized team that leave very few spaces in this type of situation. 
For the game against Sport, coach Roger Machado will not be able to count on the attackers Borja and Dudu, the first one for suspension and the second one being spared, since he is in the pre-list of 35 athletes of the Brazilian national team for the World Cup and is being spared.

Confirmed Lineup: Jailson, Marcos Rocha, Diogo Barbosa, Edu Dracena, Antônio Carlos, Felipe Melo, Alejandro Guerra, Lucas Lima, Bruno Henrique, Keno, Dudu.
Coach: A. Moreira Ferreira.

Analysis Sport

The away team is currently in the 12th position of the league, with 8 points won, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Cruzeiro, by (2‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Corinthians, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 10 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 29 goals scored and 8 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Sport Recife has won 2, tied 4 and lost 4. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 5 of the last 6 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (76'‑90'); they have conceded 11 of their 29 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Sport Recife come from 2 rounds without a win and need to find their best football to try to get closer to the top of the standings. The team have a rather ineffective attack that has scored only 6 goals, being the sixth worst of the competition, while the defense has conceded 8 goals and is the seventh most leaked, needing to improve in both to make a safe campaign where there is no risk of relegation. 
Playing away from home, such as this Saturday's match, Sport Recife accumulated 2 losses and 1 win, and the triumph was over the fragile Paraná Clube, the competition's last placed, and in general the team find great difficulties in this type of situation, leaving many spaces and being pressed the greater part of the game, so much that suffered 6 goals in the 3 games away from their domains and when faced qualified teams, which is the case of Atletico Mineiro and Cruzeiro, did not score a single goal. 
For the clash with Palmeiras, coach Claudinei Oliveira has as doubts the midfielder Gabriel and striker Rogério, but both should be released to be on the field.

Confirmed Lineup: Magrão, Cláudio Winck, Sander, Ronaldo Alves, Ernando, Anselmo, Fellipe Bastos, Neto Moura, Marlone, Rafael Marques, Gabriel.
Coach: E. Alves Moreira.
