Tip and bets

1.69total over two goals

"Atletico Paranaense" will clearly bet only on victory - only such a result will allow them to count on the semi-finals in the return match. Despite not being in the best shape, the "hurricanes" play openly and have no problems with scoring goals, it is unlikely that "Racing" has a chance to play to zero. At the same time, the "academicians" have gained shape, have high-level players ahead, it makes sense to count on goals today.

We believe that the match will be productive. Betting Tip - total over two goals . This bet is offered with odds of 1.69
