🗞️ Team News: Atlético Mineiro

Guilherme Arana (Hamstring injury), Cadu (Torn knee ligaments) and Tomás Cuello (Hamstring injury) will not be able to play for Atlético Mineiro manager Cuca Stival.

It seems likely that Galo should employ a 4-3-3 system in the match with Everson, Natanael, Lyanco, Júnior Alonso, Rubens, Gustavo Scarpa, Alan Franco, Patrick Silva, Hulk, Rony and Júnior Santos.

ℹ️ Team News: Corinthians

Corinthians boss Dorival Júnior has not got a full squad to pick from. Matheuzinho (Hamstring injury), Rodrigo Garro (Knee injury), Gustavo Henrique (Groin problems) and Memphis Depay (ankle sprain) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

We’re of the thinking that Timão seem most likely to elect for a 4-3-3 system, starting the game with Hugo Souza, Felix Torres, Andre Ramalho, Cacá, Fabrizio Angileri, Maycon, André Carrillo, Raniele, Angel Romero, Yuri Alberto and Igor Coronado.

🔮 Prediction

It looks to us that Atlético Mineiro look likely to get amongst the goals when they meet Corinthians, who will be up against it scoring a goal of their own.

We can therefore see a comfortable 2-0 margin for Atlético Mineiro at the end of the 90 minutes.
