*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Player to watch – Anibal Moreno

Anibal Moreno will be without his usual midfield partner Richar Rios this week due to the latter’s involvement with Colombia at the upcoming Copa America, and the Palmeiras anchorman should have more responsibility to shoulder in his foil’s absence.

Moreno to take command

Moreno is a new face at Palmeiras having joined the club from Argentinean club Racing Club in his homeland. The 25-year-old has already notched twice for his new employers, though he is better known for his Anibal Moreno tough tackling and Moreno should add to his modest two-card tally soon.
