The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Atlético Mineiro are in the 10th position while the guests worry at 14th.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Atlético Mineiro and Ceará.

Ceará have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Atlético Mineiro form and stats

It's trouble wherever Atlético Mineiro are playing these days as they have suffered six straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. Atlético Mineiro are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio, having lost their two previous games here.
