With two away draws in the past two games, Atlético has probably lost its chance of challenging for the league title. The Rooster is in sixth place with 54 points, five behind the leading trio. If they had won their last two matches, the Mineiros would be just one point off the top. Atlético still has to play Grêmio and Flamengo, teams higher up the table, so the team can still think about improving its position. Goiás is in a difficult situation in the standings, occupying 17th place and, therefore, in the relegation zone. The Esmeraldino urgently needs points, but in order to pick them up in Belo Horizonte, it has to overcome Atlético, who is the clear favorite.Get Your Welcome Bonus!

Atlético-MG

The Mineiros had more ball possession at the Neo Química Arena against Corinthians, but couldn't manage better than a one-all draw. The Rooster's goal was once again scored by Paulinho, who overtook Botafogo's Tiquinho and is now the top scorer in the Brasileirão. Against Goiás, Atlético can once again count on Hulk, returning after being sent off against rival América, but has lost Everson, the goalkeeper, who cannot play due to a third yellow card. The Mineiros will be looking to win and hope that their opponents higher up the table drop points.

Goiás

Things took a turn for the worse for Goiás in the last round, with the home loss to Vasco da Gama. The Esmeraldino missed a great opportunity to get out of the relegation zone and ended up motivating direct opponent Vasco. The gap to the Cariocas is only two points, but the team's confidence has probably dropped. Getting a point in this game is crucial for Goiás.

Expert Betting Tips

The odds for Atlético to win are somewhat low, and although I think Atlético is the favorite, I'm going to bet that the total number of goals in the game will be less than three. The Mineiros don't score or concede many goals, and even Goiás, on a good day, can defend the result well.
