Palmeiras host River Plate in this Copa Libertadores quarter-final second leg on Thursday. The three-time champions won the first leg 2-1 in Argentina and will look to build on that result to secure their spot in the semi-finals. Here is our prediction for the match.
Palmeiras have one foot in the 2025 Copa Libertadores semi-final after their shock first-leg win. First-half goals from Gustavo Gomez and Victor Roque secured the crucial victory for the Green and White.
Notably, Abel Ferreira's men have enjoyed remarkable recent form across competitions. They have yet to taste defeat in their last nine matches (W7, D2) and have won each of their last three matches. This includes a comprehensive 4-1 victory over Fortaleza on the domestic scene at the weekend.
River Plate's 2-1 first-leg loss to Palmeiras ended an impressive 12-match unbeaten run for the Primera Division giants. Moreover, the Millionaires' fortunes have taken a sharp turn in the last two weeks. They also lost at the weekend, suffering a 2-0 away defeat to Atl. Tucuman in the Primera Division.
Enzo Francescoli's side faces a tall order overturning their first-leg deficit against Palmeiras, particularly with the away disadvantage. They have lost two of their three encounters with the Brazilian giants.
