Palestino

DLWWLW

Palestino, buoyed by their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 2-1 Copa Sudamericana victory vs Cruzeiro.

In that match, Palestino managed 39% possession and 13 attempts on goal with 6 on target. The scorer for Palestino was Junior Arias (86'). Cruzeiro got 15 attempts at goal with 5 of them on target. Carlos Eduardo (83') was the scorer for Cruzeiro.

Fewer than three goals per match were recorded in 5 of the past 6 meetings where Palestino have been participants. In terms of the goal attribution from this period, opposing sides scored an aggregate of 5 while Palestino managed a tally of 8. That sort of pattern isn’t assured to be sustained here, however.
