Corinthians will be looking for another win after the 4-0 Copa Sudamericana success vs Nacional.

For Corinthians, the scorers were Ángel Romero (22', 73'), Yuri Alberto (64') and Pedro Raul (89').

Their latest results highlight the fact that huge efforts have been put in by the Corinthians backline. Corinthians have been stingy, with the tally of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their past six outings standing at 3.

For Atlético Mineiro, the scorers were Gustavo Scarpa (39') and Paulinho (77'). Víctor Malcorra (74') was the scorer for Rosario Central.

Proving their penchant for productive encounters, we’ve had goals 22 times in the prior 6 games in which Atlético Mineiro have taken to the pitch, making it a mean average of 3.67 goals each meeting. Opposition teams have got 7 of these goals. In any event, we’ll just have to find out whether that pattern will continue on in this game.

📋 Team News: Atlético Mineiro

Thanks to a fully healthy squad to pick from, the Atlético Mineiro manager Gabriel Milito does not have any fitness worries to speak of before this match.

It’s our belief that Galo seem likely to begin the game with a 4-4-2 formation by sending out Everson, Renzo Saravia, Mauricio Lemos, Jemerson, Guilherme Arana, Igor Gomes, Rodrigo Battaglia, Otavio, Matias Zaracho, Hulk and Paulinho.

🧠 Prediction

We’re thinking that Atlético Mineiro and Corinthians should both get enough opportunities to score, although it’s hard to separate the two.

It appears that a draw might be on the cards. We’re therefore expecting a very close game with a 1-1 draw after 90 minutes.
