Atletico MG vs Penarol
Copa Libertadores, Tuesday, 8pm ET
Play: Over 2.5 Goals
Odds at Time of Release: -105
Line Parameter: Playable to -115
Atletico MG have done a really good job in the Libertadores so far, winning both matches by 4-1 and 2-1 respectively, and comfortably sitting at the top of the group. Another win against Penarol on Tuesday would be a huge boost for the top spot, while Penarol are not expected to roll over and take the L.
Penarol are doing a good job inside their borders, sitting at the top of the Uruguayan Primera Division with 25 points (W8 D1 L0), scoring 19 goals and conceding just 4. They blasted Caracas by 5-0 in Match Day 2 of the Copa Libertadores after losing to Rosario Central by 1-0 in the opener (in a match where the Draw would have been a more fair result). They are a team that generally doesn't do well away from home, and last season they lost all 3 away matches in the Copa Sudamericana group stage, but scored in all 3 and all 3 went to the Over 3.5 Goals.
Atletico MG are balling so far in the season and another win would almost guarantee that they progress from this group, and they are more than capable of scoring 3 on their own, although we do feel that Penarol could maybe assist in the scoring.
Take 3u on the Over 2.5 Goals (-105)
