Pick: Both to score Yes @2.000 10/10
Even though Palmeiras only conceded 8 goals in the local championship, in 12 games, I still think they will let in at least one during regular time against Chelsea. The question is whether they will be able to score themselves. In the Serie A tournament, they scored 12 goals in 12 games, averaging 1 per game. In the group matches, they only scored against Porto, but their Xg (Expected goals) rating was 2.08. Miami Inter and Al Ahly both conceded 2 goals. The Brazilian quarter-final ended 0-0 and Palmeiras only advanced through extra time.
Chelsea looks very strong in attack - 10 goals in 4 games. They won 2-0 against Los Angeles, 3-0 against a Tunisian team, and lost 3-1 to Flamengo (Jackson was sent off for a rough challenge in the 68th minute). They won 4-1 after extra time against Benfica in the quarter-finals (regular time was 1-1).
I think both teams will score at least one goal.
