Peru’s Universitario de Deportes have a date with Brazilian side Palmeiras in the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores. Universitario are coming off a great run and will hope this leads them finally to their first win against Palmeiras. We have a prediction for the match below.
The 1-0 win against Sport Boys was the 12th unbeaten outing for the hosts. They have nine wins in that run, while they kept clean sheets in the last two.
Universitario sailed through Group B courtesy of such a run, finishing second with eight points. Playing at home has offered Universitario much comfort, going unbeaten in eight and winning seven.
Palmeiras will offer their hosts a stern test here. The Brazilians are coming off a 2-1 win at home to Ceara, bouncing back from three straight winless outings.
The visitors failed to score in two of their last four matches and managed just one clean sheet in the previous five games. While this looks like a mismatch, Palmeiras away form suggests they will not have an easy outing here.
In their last five matches, Palmeiras registered only one win, and they conceded twice in three of the five matches. In Copa Libertadores, however, they are unbeaten in eight away matches. In five of them, they kept clean sheets.

Our Universitario vs Palmeiras Prediction
Brazilian giants Palmeiras have a good record in this fixture, scoring nine times in the two sides’ only two meetings. The latest one ended 6-0, back in 2021. The Brazilians may struggle to replicate this performance, but they will still come in as the favorites.
This clash pits two sides in good defensive shape, and this solidity, we expect, will be carried over to the match. Therefore, our prediction for Universitario de Deportes v Palmeiras is: Both teams to score – NO.
