Serie A: What this match might lack in elegance it should compensate in tempo and attitude. Get set for São Paulo - Atlético GO!

Insights:
  • São Paulo have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Atlético GO have the most conceded goals in the first half (29) in Serie A

Atlético GO have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It's no vacation for neither Paulo nor Atlético GO as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
