Santos will hope to make their home record provide a lead against Atletico in the first leg of the round of 16 in the 2026 Copa Sudamericana competition. This match on Wednesday at Estadio Urbano Caldeira in Santos between the ‘Black-and-White’ and the ‘Rooster’ could be a tight game with goals in short supply, which is why our match prediction is under 2.5 goals.
The winner of this two-legged tie will go on to the semi-finals, where they will face either Cienciano or Montevideo City Torque.
Santos finished second in Group D of this competition with seven points (W1, D4, L1) and qualified for the knockout round playoffs. They then defeated Universidad Central (8-3 aggregate) and Macara (2-1 aggregate) to qualify for this round.
A 3-2 away win at Internacional last weekend puts Santos in good spirits for this fixture, winning two of their last three (D1) games. Their home form hasn’t been encouraging, though, as they won just two of their last seven fixtures here (D4, L1).
Atletico topped group B in this competition with ten points (W3, D1, L2) to directly move into the round of 16, where they defeated Red Bull Bragantino (3-2 on aggregate). They were beaten 2-0 away at Sao Paulo in the Brazilian league last weekend, which ended a 14-game unbeaten run (W8, D6).

Our Santos vs Atletico MG Prediction
Santos had a middling run in the group stages, drawing four of their six games (W1, L1). With only six goals conceded, four of their six league games have produced fewer than three strikes. Atletico have been equally frugal, conceding only six goals in their six league games. Will this continue to be the case here?
The last five matches between these sides have produced two or fewer goals, and that’s likely to continue here. That’s why our Santos vs Atletico MG prediction is under 2.5 goals.
