Athletico Paranaense welcome Palmeiras on Sunday, Oct 18 at 5:00 PM in a Serie A fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.
Athletico Paranaense come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). Palmeiras travel in mixed form (2W 2D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
In 10 previous meetings, Athletico Paranaense lead 3–5 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Athletico Paranaense won 0–1.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Athletico Paranaense a slight edge, but Palmeiras are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
