Analysis and forecast for the match of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores “Atlético Mineiro” – “Palmeiras” (03.08.2023)
The Copa Libertadores continues to gain momentum. It’s playoff time. Three round of 16 matches of the tournament are scheduled for August 3. Among others, the match stands out, in which Atlético Mineiro and Palmeiras will measure their forces in Belo Horizonte.

The last eight face-to-face meetings do not at all testify in favor of Atlético Mineiro. Six of them ended in a draw, and Palmeiras won the other two (one in regulation time and a penalty shootout).
Buffon, 45, will retire.
Will the hosts be able to beat the Verdiblancos this time? At the moment, they are in 13th place in the Brazilian Serie A standings. At the beginning, the Belo Horizonte team did quite well. In the initial nine rounds, they suffered only two losses and drew twice.
However, then Atlético Mineiro fell into a black line. In the last eight meetings, they did not get a single victory. The Belo Horizonte club drew against Red Bull Bragantino (1:1), Fluminense (1:1), América Mineiro (2:2) and Goiás (0:0). They lost to Fortaleza (1:2), Corinthians (0:1), Gremio (0:1) and Flamengo (1:2).

In only two of these games did Atlético Mineiro leader Hulk participate, who regularly pleased the performance at the beginning of the season. In the match with Corinthians he could not participate due to disqualification. The former Zenit striker received a red card a game earlier for a controversial moment.
Al-Nasr announced the signing of a contract with Mane.
One way or another, despite the efforts of the Hulk, in other meetings, Scolari’s wards performed poorly and lost points in the case. It seems that the legendary coach has lost the thread of success. His wards lost to strong opponents in all statistical indicators. Questions for the mentor.
Palmeiras is much more stable and better. For 17 rounds in the Brazilian championship, he lost only to the leaders Botafogo (0: 1) and Baye (0: 1). In addition, in the match with the former, the Verdiblancos were able to equalize the score at the end from the penalty spot, and in the match with Bahía they only gave up after second half discount.
Likewise, Abel Ferreira’s pupils tied seven times. Five of them are out. Thus, the Sao Paulo team is in third place in the Brazilian Serie A standings, it has the same number of points as Flamengo, which is on the second line, but the additional indicators are slightly worse.
In the Copa Libertadores, Palmeiras is no less confident. In five of the six group stage matches of the tournament, he was victorious. It is curious that Abel Ferreira practically did not allocate playing time to one of the most promising footballers – Real Madrid striker Andrik.
The 17-year-old forward has not yet been able to play for the Spanish team. The Palmeiras coach can trust him until the end of the season. However, Ferreira practically does not take advantage of this opportunity. In total, in all official matches this season, he has allocated only 407 minutes of playing time to Andrik so far.

This suggests that Palmeiras has excellent lineup depth. The results confirm it. During 17 days in the Brazilian championship, the Verdiblancos scored 32 goals, while they themselves conceded only 15, less than only the leader Botafogo. X2 + TM 3.5 balls with a coefficient of 1.84 are accepted.
Chelsea paid 27 million euros for the 19-year-old Rennes midfielder.
In six of the last eight face-to-face meetings this outcome has been played. Atlético Mineiro also has order in defense. Over 17 rounds, he conceded just 17 goals. However, the hosts themselves scored only 19 goals. Despite the Hulk’s presence, they clearly lack power in the attacking line.
Prediction and bets for the Copa Libertadores match Atlético Mineiro – Palmeiras on August 3, 2023
Atlético Mineiro has not achieved a single victory in its last nine games in all official competitions. He landed on a black streak, and the next game is far from the most convenient to get out of it. Palmeiras is stable and has excellent results in both the Brazilian Championship and the Copa Libertadores. On the side of the Verdiblancos is the depth of the squad and the history of face-to-face meetings. I think at least they won’t lose. We don’t expect many goals. First, both teams have solid defense. Secondly, in recent years, Scolari’s pupils have noticeably worsened his performance.
Tender: Palmeiras will not lose and the total is below 3.5 goals for 1.84.
