Palmeiras to Win
While Emelec has been great lately in their domestic championship, they started Copa Libertadores with a couple of draws. Meanwhile, Palmeiras won both of their games, with a goal difference of 12:1!
So, we would go with Palmeiras in this game. After all, they are the reigning champions of Copa Libertadores for the second time in a row and they have a great team.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
As we already mentioned, we’ve seen 13 goals in the first two games played by Palmeiras in the group. Meanwhile, we saw two goals in each of Emelec matches so far.
All in all, this game should go over 2.5 total goals, especially since Palmeiras won’t play under any pressure after two great wins and we feel that that could lead to them being even better.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
Both teams have scored in three of the four games played by Emelec and Palmeiras so far in the group stages and we can see that being the case again in their next game.
In addition to this, both teams scored in four of the last five Emelec games in all competitions, as well as three of last five Palmeiras matches across the board.
