The central encounter in the quarter-finals of the Libertadores Cup will undoubtedly be the clash between Atlético Mineiro and Palmeiras. The strongest teams in Brazil and South America will meet at such an early stage, and naturally, only one side will emerge victorious.

The Galo approached the first quarter-final of the Libertadores Cup in a poor mood, with a three-match unbeaten streak. During this period, they drew with Cuiaba. They were weaker than Corinthians and Internacional, with the Reds beating AC Milan with a score of 3:0. In the Brazilian championship, the Galo have dropped out of the top 6 and are no longer likely to claim the title, having -10 against Palmeiras. Atletico Mineiro dropped out of the Brazilian Cup after losing on aggregate to Flamengo. The Cup of Libertadores becomes the most important tournament for the team this season.
Palmeiras
Unlike AM, Palmeiras approached the first leg against Atletico Mineiro with a 4-match winning streak. After dropping out of the Brazilian Cup, they have achieved 4 consecutive victories in Brasileiro, beating Cuiaba, América, Inter and Ceará. For the Greens, the Libertadores Cup is hugely important. Naturally, the future visitors want to defend the title of the strongest team in South America, but it seems that it is more important for Verdao to win back the trophy in the Brazilian championship than to defend the title.
Expert Betting Tips
Palmeiras is complicated to beat, so there is no guarantee that Atletico Mineiro can win, but we are confident that the Galo will not lose in the fourth. As for the total, the upcoming encounter is likely to be low-scoring, just like the match in Sao Paulo in Serie A.
