Chapecoense-SC come up to the forthcoming clash with four-match unbeaten run, having gained three victories and one draw in it. After three gameweeks of the Serie A, “Chape” share the second-fourth places in the table with their upcoming rival Corinthians having taken seven points. This year Chapecoense-SC recorded seven victories, two draws and eight defeats in 17 encounters on the road. The side’s no-win away streak counts for four matches and has been lasting since the 30th of April.
Cruzeiro and Chapecoense-SC have met three times in 2017. It should be noted that Mano Menezes’ side got three clean sheets in those head-to-heads as well as two home wins with 2:0, 1:0 scorelines and one 0:0 draw on the road in the recent Copa do Brasil fight on the 2nd of June. Taking into consideration the hosts’ strong performance at their own turf this year plus the fact that they know perfectly well how to play against Chapecoense-SC, I believe that they will take another three points.
Prediction for the match: Cruzeiro to win.
