Atlético Mineiro Vasco da Gama betting prediction

The home team faces Vasco da Gama, in a match for the 21 round, which had been delayed, after 9 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in the league so far. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 1 draw and 9 losses in away matches, with 13 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 26 goals scored and 15 conceded. For the league, Atlético Mineiro won 17 points out of 30 possible points, after 5 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 home matches. In their home matches there are a few frequent results: at half‑time 0‑1 (4 out of 11 matches) and 1‑0 (4 out of 11 matches) and after the 90' 2‑1 (4 out of 11 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 10 of the last 11 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 12 of their 21 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 3.

Atletico-MG are campaigning well below expectations in Serie A, but ended a run of 6 straight defeats with their triumph in the last round and are looking for another positive result to try to reach the top of the standings. The team needs to improve mainly in the defensive sector, as it is the eleventh team to suffer the least goals out of the competition, so much that it has conceded goals in the last 8 rounds, but its offensive sector is efficient, creates several chances and has been shaking the nets regularly. Playing at home, like this Wednesday's match, Atletico have been somewhat irregular, alternating good and bad results, and again the biggest problem is defensive fragility, so much so that they have conceded goals in 6 of the last 7 matches at their stadium, although have scored goals in 8 of the last 9 games in this kind of situation. For the match against Vasco da Gama, the coach Rodrigo Santana must use the same lineup that beat Ceará in the last round.

Confirmed Lineup: Cleiton, Fábio Santos, Patric, Igor Rabello, Iago Maidana, Rómulo Otero, Juan Cazares, Nathan, Elias, Franco di Santo, Luan.
Coach: G. Milito.
