THE PREDICTION
River Plate continued their unbeaten run in all competitions as they played out an entertaining draw with Boca Juniors last time out and they come into this semi-final with Palmeiras on the back of 13-game streak without defeat. They have won five of their last six games on home soil and they will hope to capitalise on home advantage in this first leg. The Brazilian side are also on a solid run of form having lost just one of their last 11 matches in all competitions but with just two wins from their last seven on the road, it is the hosts that should be able to come out on top in this opening clash.
