Palmeiras to Win and Lead at Half Time
The reigning champions of Brazil have nine points from four games in Copa Libertadores so far, while Barcelona Guayaquil has just three points. So, a point in this match would guarantee the next stage for Palmeiras.
However, Palmeiras are too good to go for a point at home against a team that's not in the same category when it comes to quality, so our first Palmeiras vs Barcelona prediction is for the home team to win the match and lead at half time.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
We did not see there or more goals in any of the three most recent head-to-head duels between these teams, but still, our second Palmeiras vs Barcelona prediction is over 2.5 total goals.
After all, Palmeiras will enter this game without any pressure since even a point guarantees them next stage and they have been doing well in terms of goals since they've gone over 2.5 total goals in three of their four Copa Libertadores matches so far.
