It's advantage Sao Paulo so far with their 4th position in the Serie A table, welcoming Atletico Mineiro who are placed 12th.

São Paulo form and stats

São Paulo, who have the fewest conceded goals (17) in Serie A, have collected 27 points from their Serie A home games so far after 7-6-1. There’s a good atmosphere here at Morumbí after three straight home wins.

São Paulo's previous game was a Serie A match also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Avaí (placed 20th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Heartbreak before that as São Paulo lost 0-1 at Cruzeiro's place.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier São Paulo matches with similar probabilities have ended with 1 win, 3 draws and 0 defeats (from four games).

The manager Fernando Diniz will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Palmeiras in only three days.

The São Paulo fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 14 matches. From these home matches, São Paulo have conceded only 8 goals.

Atlético Mineiro form and stats

Atlético Mineiro have only collected 12 points from their away games in the Serie A, after 3-3-7 (13 played).

Atlético Mineiro won their last game, 2-0 versus Santos played at home. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus CSA that ended 2-2.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Atlético Mineiro playing away, we found three games. Results were 2 away wins, 0 draws and 1 home win.

After this away game Atlético Mineiro return home for a Serie A game against Chapecoense. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Atlético Mineiro as they have only managed to score 12 times from 13 away games in the league. 18 goals have been conceded by Atlético Mineiro in these games.

Head 2 Head

The teams have played each other before this season, with the result Atlético Mineiro - São Paulo 1-1 entered in the official records. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: 3 wins for São Paulo, 2 draws and 5 wins for Atlético Mineiro. Over 2,5 goals: 6 times; under 2,5 goals: 4 games.
