Atletico-MG take on the visitors Avai at “Estadio Raimundo Sampaio” in the matchday five of the Brazilians Serie A. The game will be played in Belo Horizonte on Thursday, June 8th.
Atletico-MG have not been losing in three recent clashes of the season: the side defeated Parana 2:0 in the Copa do Brasil and promoted to the quarter-final of the tournament by the aggregated outcome of two-legs fight. In regards to the Serie A, “Galo” had gained two draws: 2:2 vs. Ponte Preta and 0:0 vs. Palmeiras. Atletico-MG neither lose nor win in Serie A, having gained three points in four rounds with 4-5 goal difference and occupy the 17th place in the standings. In 2017 Atletico-MG conducted 15 games recording 13 victories, one draw and single defeat in them.

Last matchday Avai took the debut win in the current Serie A, having defeated Sport Recife with 1:0 scoreline at their own turf. This resulted in “Leao da Ilha” sitting on the 13th place in the standings with four points earned and 1-4 goal difference after four rounds. In 15 away encounters of this season Avai gained seven triumphs, three draws and five losses.
Atletico-MG have not been beaten by Avai since 2006 across nine consecutive clashes having got six wins and three draws in them. Last five head-to-heads of the teams ended in Atletico-MG‘s favor with 13:2 aggregated score. I believe that Avai is the best possible opponent for the hosting team to take its first victory in this season’s Serie A.
Prediction for the match: Atletico-MG to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
