Cruzeiro take on the visitors Atletico GO at “Estadio Mineirao” in the gameweek six of the Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played in Belo Horizonte on Monday, June 12th.
Cruzeiro are not in their best form as the team is unable to score a goal across last three clashes having recorded 0:0 draw vs. Chapecoense-SC and 0:2 defeat to Chapecoense-SC as well, plus 0:1 loss to Bahia. This unlucky series threw the “Raposas" back to the mid-table and currently they have seven points gained with 3-4 goal difference and occupy the 10th place in the standings of the Serie A. Despite their recent weak performance, Cruzeiro are still the home team as the side got 12 victories with two draws and two defeats in 16 matches.

Last matchday Atletico GO defeated Ponte Preta with 3:0 scoreline at the home field and broke their eight-game no-win run during which they gained only two draws. That triumph allowed “Dragao” to pick up their first points in this season. And at the moment Marcelo Cabo’s side occupies the 18th position in Serie A standings with three points earned and 4-11 goal difference. In 2017 Atletico GO showed mediocre results on the road: they recorded four victories, three draws and four losses in 11 encounters. The side’s series without victories at away turfs counts for six clashes.
Cruzeiro have not been defeated by Atletico GO in their five recent head-to-heads covering four wins and one draw. Taking into account the home-field advantage as well as their head-to-heads’ statistics, "Celeste" must take three points in the upcoming fight.
Prediction for the match: Cruzeiro to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
