Player to watch: Jose Lopez
Although Jose Lopez was on the scoresheet for Palmeiras a few days ago, he was unable to prevent his team from getting knocked out of the Copa Libertadores.
However, the former Lanus forward has been impressive of late, scoring three times in his last two appearances for Palmeiras. As Palmeiras gear up for this clash, Lopez will hope to score in three consecutive matches for the first time since February.
