Cruzeiro will hope to halt their recent downslide as they face a tricky visit to Atletico Mineiro in a matchday 28 fixture of the Brazilian Serie A on Wednesday night local time. This match in Belo Horizonte between the 14th-placed Rooster and the third-placed ‘Black Beast’ comes with our prediction of under 2.5.
With 32 points, Atletico MG are one point outside the top 12 teams in the division ahead of this round. Cruzeiro’s 52 points see them start this round six points behind the leaders.
Atletico won 3-1 at home against Sport Recife in the last round, but that was only their second win across ten league games (W2, D3, L5). They have scored only 25 goals in the season, which is among the lowest tallies in the division.
Despite those troubles, Atletico have lost only at home this season in the league, winning six of their last ten league fixtures at this venue.
Cruzeiro had a 1-1 draw at home against Sport Recife last matchday, extending their winless run to three matches (D2, L1). This run negated the positives of four consecutive wins as the visitors look to return to winning ways.
On the road, Cruzeiro lost only one of their last ten away league trips but won only five (W5, D4, L1).
