Match summary

Palmeiras vs Fluminense is the second leg of the Copa Libertadores semi-finals at Nubank Parque on Thursday 22 October 2026, and our model picks a Palmeiras win, with Palmeiras win or draw on double chance.

Why this pick?

Our model makes Palmeiras the pick to win, because it rates them well above Fluminense on its long-run strength measure, clearly above the Copa Libertadores average. The counterweight is a head-to-head that is almost level across 35 meetings, including Fluminense's 3‑2 win in August, and a visiting side chasing the tie. What holds it up is the shape of both teams: Palmeiras concede big chances well below the league average over their last five games and create far more than Fluminense, whose attacking numbers sit under the norm. With home advantage, the call is clear.
