Atletico Goianiense take on the visitors Nacional in the second leg of Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals. First leg result: 1-0. The match will be played on Wednesday, August 10th at Estádio Antonio Accioly (Goiânia).
Atlético Goianiense are successful everywhere except the domestic championship. The "Dragon" until recently had the logical status of a football lift. But last season, this rather modest team unexpectedly climbed up to 9th place. Now, however, a very serious rollback has begun, and the team is hanging out among the outsiders of Serie A. However, so far there is something to please fans in other areas. The club recently beat Flamengo 2-0 in the cup. And in the Copa Sudamericana, having won their group and going through the 1/8 round, the Brazilians won minimally in Uruguay as well. But the main thing now is not to spoil everything in the return, home leg.

Nacional risk saying goodbye to the tournament in this round. The "Tricolor" are real football giant. They have 48 league titles to their credit. And quite recently, they managed to get hold of a new trophy: having beaten Liverpool (Montevideo) in the final, the team was able to win another Torneo Intermedio - not the highest achievement, but also nice, especially since in 2021 there was only success in the national Super Cup. But in the international arena, not everything works out. From the Copa Libertadores they got knocked out, taking only 3rd place in their group. In the Copa Sudamericana, it was possible to pass the Union Santa Fe in the 1/8 finals, having won both meetings against the Argentines (2-0, 2-1). But with the Brazilians in Montevideo, only Luis Fernando scored the only goal by the visiting team. It didn't help that star rookie Luis Suarez spent about 20 minutes on the field. The legend of Ajax, Liverpool, Barcelona and partially Atlético returned to his homeland to finish the career.
Atletico Goianiense is definitely not a frequenter of international tournaments. As expected, the parties have not met before this round. Atletico Goianiense have been stronger away from home and will certainly try to repeat their success at home. It is unlikely that Nacional will particularly resist. We bet on the victory of the hosts of the arena.
Prediction for the match: Atletico Goianiense to win.
