ℹ️ Team News: Cruzeiro

Bruno Rodrigues (Hamstring injury), Kauã Prates (Hamstring injury) and Cássio (Torn knee ligaments) won’t be playing for Cruzeiro manager Artur Jorge.

🔮 Prediction

In this game, Cruzeiro look set to score at least once when they face Goias, who might well find it a difficult task scoring a goal of their own.

We reckon that it will be a pretty comfortable 2-0 margin for Cruzeiro by the time that the referee blows the final whistle.
