Palmeiras Solid Record Points to Avoiding Defeat
Palmeiras sit second in the table with ten more points than Atletico Paranaense after thirty games each. Their recent run includes three wins and just one defeat while Atletico Paranaense have managed two wins two draws and one loss. Palmeiras also concede only 0.7 goals a game overall and 0.8 away from home. In the last ten meetings they have five victories compared with three for Atletico Paranaense. Atletico Paranaense score 1.8 goals per home game but have seen both teams score in eighteen of their thirty league matches so far. Yellow card suspensions for Giay and Gomez could test Palmeiras depth at the back. A tight contest looks likely where Palmeiras stay hard to beat.
