Tonight, the first round of the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals will present a key matchup as Boca Jr. hosts Pomeranz. Boca Jr., who used to be a great team in the past, seems to be very cautious in the knockout round of the Copa Libertadores, while Palmeiras, who has always had a solid defense, dares not take any action when playing on the road. The low price of 1.5 goals is certainly worth the attention of fans. (The match will be played on Friday at 8:30am!)
Argentine soccer giants Boga Jr. have won the Copa Libertadores six times, second only to Barcelona, but haven't asked for the top spot since 2007 when they won the title. Despite reaching the final on two occasions in 2012 and 2018 only to finish runners-up, the strength of the team has declined year on year. Despite the former Manchester United scorer Kayuni in town, the old man's form is no longer as brave as it was in the old days, and since joining the team, he has only scored one goal in all competitions, so the only thing Boga can do is to strengthen the defense. In the Round of 16 against Montevideo National and the Round of 8 against Racing Club, Boga failed to win any of the 4 legal time matches, both ended in draws, and scored only 2 goals in total, and finally relied on the penalty shootout to narrowly win, which is evident of its conservative strategy in the knockout matches.
