Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

We're tipping a relatively tight affair here and, as such, we predict under 2.5 goals. That means we a suggesting 2 goals or less will be scored in total as Cruzeiro and Palmeiras go head-to-head. Good performances all round will be required to deliver us a winner, but we have reason to trust both sides to deliver exactly that. The statistics and the odds below also suggest this is a strong tip.
