An intriguing encounter awaits us on Thursday night when Cuiaba and Palestino meet in the second leg of the Copa Sudamericana Round of 32.
Both sides went into the first leg full of confidence, with Cuiaba unbeaten in two games and the visitors on a three-match unbeaten run.
Despite being favourites, Deyverson had to come off the bench to help Cuiaba to a draw, and the Golden Dourado Fish were expected to respond last time out when they hosted Fluminense in the league. They didn't, however, as Mano Menezes' side ended up on the negative end of a 1-0 scoreline.
Palestino were also on the losing side in their most recent outing. For the first time in four games, the visitors conceded four goals, losing 4-1 and head coach Lucas Bovaglio will be worried with his side's recent form on the road.
Cuiaba vs. Palestino betting tips: Draw & Both teams to score
One of Cuiaba's biggest problems this season has been their defence. The hosts go into Thursday's game on a run of seven consecutive games without keeping a clean sheet. They failed to win all three of their home games during that spell, losing two and drawing one, with both teams failing to score on just one occasion.
Palestino have also struggled defensively of late, conceding two or more goals in three of their last five matches, but they are strong in the final third. The Chileans have scored in all but one of their last ten encounters, with bets on both teams to score winning in each of the last four.
- Best Tip: BTTS - Yes
- Cuiaba vs Palestino prediction: 2-2
Cuiaba team news
Cuiaba didn’t register any injuries in the defeat to Fluminense last time out, but head coach Mano Menezes is expected to make wholesale changes to his starting eleven.
Having featured as substitutes in that game Max Alves, Deyverson and Clayson will all be pushing for a place in the XI on Thursday.
