Player to Watch: Vitor Roque
Since we can see Athletico Paranaense winning this game, our player to watch comes from their side and it is their young forward Vitor Roque, one of the top prospects in Brazil.
The 18-year-old came to the team this season and he is already proving worth the hefty price tag that Athletico paid for him as he has three goals and two assists in nine Serie A matches for his team, in addition to one goal in four Copa Libertadores matches.
