Cuiabá are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.

Cuiabá have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1500 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Atlético Mineiro form and stats

7 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Atlético Mineiro have to build on here at Estádio Governador Magalhães Pinto in the Serie A.

The Atlético Mineiro regulars got no joy from their last match, also played here at Estádio Governador Magalhães Pinto: A 0-2 defeat against Botafogo (placed 10th). The first loss after collecting points in three league fixtures. Jair (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.4/10. Jair hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 42 successful passes (of 48 total).

Preceding that game was the away draw at Sao Paulo that finished 2-2.

The home team are expected to win this game about three out of four times, according to the bookmaker odds. When checking the database for Atlético home games with this odds we find 10 games with a similar winning chance. Resulting in 8 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat. Looking at the victories, 3 matches were won by at least two goals.

It should be considered that a peek at the 10 latest league fixtures shows that 8 of them qualified as a both teams not to score result (only one or none of the sides scored).

Atlético Mineiro are traveling soon after this match as the Serie A match at Corinthians awaits in three days.

Atlético are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 22 goals in 18 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.
