Prediction published on 23/05/2022, 00:03  by Indran in Copa Libertadores Prediction

Palmeiras hosts Deportivo Tachira at the Allianz Parque in this final round group stage match of the Copa Libertadores. The home team have already qualified as the group winner with 15 points while the visitors are in second position with 7 points. Palmeiras have been brilliant in the competition so far with a perfect record of five wins from their five matches. They secured top spot after only four rounds and look miles ahead of any of the other teams in the group. Palmeiras have an incredible goal scoring record as they have found the back of the net 21 times in five matches at an average of over four goals per match. Their defensive record is also excellent with just two goals conceded in five matches. Palmeiras are unbeaten in their last 12 matches across all competitions with nine wins and three draws.

Deportivo Tachira have a mountain to climb in this match as they face the group winners and although they are in second position it will be difficult to get any points in this match. They are two points ahead of third placed Emelec and will be hoping that Emelec lose or draw their match so that they can progress even if they lose. This seems unlikely though as Emelec play the bottom placed team who have lost their last four matches. Even a draw for Deportivo Tachira won’t be good enough if Emelec win as they will have a better goal difference.
