Day 43: We're backing Palmeiras to beat Universitario de Sucre at [2.08]
We're going a bit crazy today and betting on an away team in South America.
Bolivian side Universitario de Sucre meet Brazilians Palmeiras in the last 16 of the Copa Sudamericana with everything pointing to a win for Palmeiras.
The Brazilians have lost just one of their last ten games in all competitions, and have not been defeated in their last six. Meanwhile, Universitario are going through a miserable time of things and have slumped to 11th in the Bolivian Primera Division - they have lost their last four games and their last two at home.
They got to this stage of the Copa Sudamericana courtesy of a tight 3-2 aggregate win over Paraguayan outfit Cerro Porteño in the last round, while Palmeiras produced a fantastic second-leg performance to come back from two goals down against fellow Brazilians Vitória and win 3-2.
We fancy Luiz Felipe Scolari's men to end Universitario's Copa Sudamericana ambitions with ease tonight.
