Palmeiras River Plate: betting tip (cf 2.25) and bets on the Copa Libertadores match

Palmeiras has so far fully justified its status as one of the main favorites of the Copa Libertadores – Abel Ferreira's team won the group with 18 points out of 18 possible, did not leave any chances for Universitario in the 1/8 finals, without conceding a single goal from the Peruvians in two matches. In the first meeting against River Plate, Palmeiras won quite sensationally 2-1 and now it remains to defend this advantage at home.

River Plate, like its opponent today, was one of the top five favorites of the Copa Libertadores before the start of the tournament. The millionaires were also very convincing in the group and went through the group stage undefeated, but in the 1/8 finals, Marcelo Gallardo's team almost flew out of Libertada, beating the Paraguayans only in a penalty shootout. A 1-2 home defeat in the first leg seriously complicated the Argentines' task.
