Since a losing effort in their last game against Cienciano in Copa Sudamericana competition, Caracas will be hoping to turn things around here.

This doesn’t mask the fact that Caracas have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 6 of those same games. We will have to find out if that trend will end up being sustained into this next match.

📰 Team News: Atlético Mineiro

Guilherme Arana (Thigh problems), Cadu (Torn knee ligaments) and Gabriel Menino (Inflammation of ligaments in the knee) will not be taking part for Atlético Mineiro gaffer Cuca Stival.

It’s our opinion that Galo may well line up in a 4-2-3-1 system for the game, utilising Everson, Renzo Saravia, Lyanco, Junior Alonso, Caio Paulista, Fausto Vera, Rubens, Junior Santos, Tomas Cuello, Bernard and Hulk.

🗞️ Team News: Caracas

Thanks to a completely healthy group ready to go, the Caracas manager has no fitness concerns to speak of ahead of this clash.

From our viewpoint, Los Rojos del Ávila will likely play in a 4-1-4-1 formation, choosing Frankarlos Benitez, Edgardo Rito, Francisco La Mantia, Blessing Edet, Jesus Yendis, Vicente Rodriguez, Ender Echenique, Miguel Vegas, Anderson Contreras, Jose Hernandez and Jeriel De Santis.

⚡ Prediction

We’re of the opinion that Atlético Mineiro will most probably be able to create a high number of chances and successful shots on target.

Conversely, Caracas could well find it tough to find the back of the net - but, we do see them scoring as well.

Therefore, we are anticipating a 3-1 margin for Atlético Mineiro at full-time.
