Prediction

  • Last time out Atletico MG missed the chance to regain top spot in the league with a 3-1 loss away to Bahia. A poor second-half display saw Bahia take advantage and stun Atletico. They will be hoping to improve here. Atletico sit in third three points of the top two who play each other this weekend which makes it important that Atletico get the job done here.
  • Sport have been in the dreadful form of late which has seen them lose their last four league matches. Last time out they took on Bragantino away where they suffered a deserved 2-0 loss. Sport failed to create chances at goal whilst being leaky at the back, they will have to improve here or it's likely to be a fifth straight loss.
  • The last meeting between these two took place back in September 2018, Atletico enjoyed a 5-2 victory on that occasion.
