Palmeiras Junior betting prediction

Betting suggestion:

This confrontation tends to be balanced, given that Palmeiras, despite being more qualified and presenting a better campaign, is already guaranteed in the 8th finals and the result of this game does not have major implications for the rest of the tournament, while Junior Barranquilla seeks the victory to advance in stage, but can advance with a draw if Boca Juniors does not beat Alianza Lima. Palmeiras should save some athletes in this clash, but its reserve players are quite strong as it showed in the last round by winning away from home with an alternative team, while Junior Barranquilla probably needs the 3 points, since Boca Juniors must win the other game of the round and will have to give it all and Palmeiras is deadly when it has spaces to play, besides being a very strong team at home. In view of these factors, we believe that Palmeiras will play more loose and conquer the 3 points, although it is prudent to protect against a possible draw, since Junior Barranquilla has not lost 3 rounds in the continental competition.

Preview

Palmeiras and Junior face at Allianz Parque, in a match for this stage of the Copa Libertadores (Group Stage). In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Palmeiras

After 4 wins and 1 draw, the home team is currently in the 1^st position, with 13 points won. In the last match, they have won (1‑3) in an away match against Alianza Lima, after in the previous round they have won (0‑2) in an away match against Boca Juniors. 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 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 28 goals scored and 11 conceded. They come to this match after a away loss against Corinthians by (1‑0). Palmeiras has won 5, tied 3 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches.

They haven’t lost any of the last 5 matches for this competition. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in all of the last 5 matches for this competition.

Palmeiras makes a great campaign in the Copa Libertadores and arrives for this last round already ranked in the first place, but now goes in search of 3 more points to guarantee the first general position of the competition and to have the advantage of deciding all the games of the knock-out in its stadium. The team is characterized by an excellent balance between the offensive and defensive sectors, having scored 11 goals in 5 games, being the most positive attack of its group, and conceded only 2 goals, having the defense less leaked, so much that did not concede goals in 3 of the 5 matches it played, as well as having one of the strongest squad in the Americas, with top-quality players and qualified reserve players.

Playing at home, as the match on Wednesday, Palmeiras has 1 win and 1 draw, and this equality was against the good team of Boca Juniors, but overall is a very strong team in this type of situation, usually dominate the match from the opening minutes and also creates many opportunities, in addition to leaving few spaces behind. For the game against Juniors Barranquilla, coach Roger Machado should spare some athletes, as he did in the last round, since the team has a squad of great quality and does not decrease much when it mix holders with reserves players and the team is already qualified for the 8th finals.

Confirmed Lineup: Fernando Prass, Mayke, Victor Luis, Luan, Emerson Santos, Thiago Santos, Danilo Gomes Magalhaes, Alejandro Guerra, Miguel Borja, Willian, Dudu.
Coach: A. Moreira Ferreira.

Analysis Junior

The away team is currently in the 2^nd position, with 7 points won, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. In the penultimate round, they have won a home match agaisnt Alianza Lima by (1‑0). In the last round, they have tied a home match against Boca Juniors 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, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 14 conceded; against 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 17 goals scored and 12 conceded. In their last match, for the Primera A, they got a home loss against Medellín by (0‑1). In the last 4 Copa Libertadores away matches Junior has a record of 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 16 of the last 34 matches have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 23 out of 34 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 7 of their 19 goals between minutes (16'‑30').

Juniors Barranquilla arrives for this final round in search of the 3 points to ensure itself in the next phase without depending on other results, since if it does not win, will need a stumble of Boca Juniors in the other game of Group 8. The team comes from great 2 wins and 1 draw in the continental competition where it suffered only 1 goal, having evolved quite defensively with the passing of the competition, in addition to having a fast attack that usually does very well when there are spaces to play, but against Palmeiras these spaces must be scarce, so it has to be connected to take advantage of the goal chances that certainly will not be a lot against the less leaked defense of the group.

Playing away from home, as the match on Wednesday, Juniors Barranquilla comes from a great 2-0 victory over Alianza Lima in the game where it had excellent defensive performance and knew how to take advantage of the few chances that appeared and wants to maintain the same style of play in the match against Palmeiras. For this match of the last round, coach Comesaña has no problems in the main team and goes to the field with the best.

Confirmed Lineup: Sebastián Viera, David Murillo, Marlon Piedrahita, Jonathan Ávila, Jorge Arias, Victor Cantillo, Leonardo Pico, Jarlan Barrera, Yimmi Chará, Teófilo Gutiérrez, Yony González.
Coach: J. Comesaña López.
