Palmeiras x Botafogo: quais jogadores têm mais chance de fazer gol no duelo pelo Mundial? Veja análise
No Palmeiras, Flaco López lidera grande parte das estatísticas do ataque. Ele já marcou 11 vezes na temporada, entrando em campo em 31 oportunidades, com uma média de 0,35 gol por partida. No Mundial, já balançou as redes na vitória de 2 a 0 sobre o Al Ahly, na segunda rodada, e é a principal esperança do time de Abel Ferreira nas oitavas de final. De saída, Estêvão também marcou 11 gols no ano pelo alviverde (em 35 partidas, com média de 0,31) e está em busca de seu primeiro gol no torneio.

No total, ele já marcou nove gols pelo alvinegro em 27 jogos, com […]
