Atletico Mineiro hosts Corinthians in round 31 of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Thursday, November 11th at Mineirão (Belo Horizonte)
Atletico Mineiro is eager to win the champion’s title. In the entire history of performances in Serie A and its predecessors, the Roosters took 1st place only once, and it was back in 1971. And now they can celebrate the anniversary with a fresh title! However, they have had reasons to be proud in recent years. In 2013, they won the Copa Libertadores, and the next season brought a victory in the Recopa of South America (an analog to the UEFA Super Cup) and the Brazilian Cup. Atletico Mineiro was not able to rise above the 2nd place in Serie A. But now the Roosters are ten points ahead of their pursuers. Hulk (ripped ex-Zenit player has 11 goals and is the club's top scorer) and the company have a confident lead over the main pursuer, Palmeiras. Truth be told, Atletico-MG suffered two out of five defeats in October. But it was able to gain victories in both last rounds.

Despite all its considerable popularity, Corinthians has not reached anything significant in recent years. It finished in 12th place in the last draw. And this is after three champion’s titles won in 2011-2017! But we can admit that Corinthians has stepped up lately. Moreover, Timao did it at the decisive segment of the championship. Sylvinho's charges have minimally beaten Chapecoense and Fortaleza in recent matches. This allowed them to get to 6th place. Moreover, the chances of climbing two steps higher are quite real. The fourth line is taken by Red Bull Bragantino. It is a strong team, but it is clearly more concerned about the upcoming Copa Sudamericana final. There are only two points between the clubs, and Corinthians has a game in hand. However, one should not underestimate Fortaleza, which was beaten the day before.
Atlético Mineiro has recently learned to play well against Corinthians. Now the Roosters are on a streak of four consecutive victories in head-to-head matches, including a character 1-2 win on Timao’s pitch this summer. Hulk became the hero of that game, scoring a brace. Bookmakers believe that there is no particular intrigue in this pair now. Corinthians will not be able to take points away from the leader in Belo Horizonte. The bet on the victory of Atletico Mineiro looks like a reliable option for betting.
