Cobresal vs Sao Paulo Prediction and Betting Tips | May 9th 2024

Cobresal will host Sao Paulo at the Estadio Zoros del Desierto on Thursday in another round of the 2024 Copa Libertadores campaign. The home side have endured a difficult return to the continental stage and continue to search for their first Copa Libertadores win since 2016.

They were beaten 2-0 by Tallares last time out in the competition and could have no real complaints about the result after managing just one shot on target in the opposition box throughout the match.

Cobresal sit rock-bottom in the league table with just one point from three games and will be desperate to add to that tally this week to retain their hopes of advancement.

Sao Paulo, meanwhile, are enjoying a good run of form in the Brasileirao Serie A and will be looking to carry that momentum onto the continental stage this week. They beat Barcelona SC 2-0 in their last group game, with Jonathan Calleri opening the scoring in the first half before Alisson doubled their advantage in the second.

The visitors sit second in the table with six points and will confirm a spot in the knockout stages with a win on Thursday, provided Barcelona lose to Tallares elsewhere.
