Corinthians hosts Atletico Mineiro in round 12 of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, July 18th at Neo Quimica Arena (Sao Paulo)
Corinthians failed the start of this season. They failed to make it to the playoffs of Copa Sudamericana (however, this fact made the calendar a lot easier for them). And they gained only one victory in five starting rounds of Brasileirao. Something began to work out only by the end of June. Jo scored more or less regularly (now the ex-player of Moscow CSKA has four goals in eight matches), and his team had a streak of six matches without defeats, crowning it with a 0-1 away victory over Chapecoense. But in the last round, on July 12, Sylvinho's charges lost on the field of Fortaleza. Robson scored a goal already in the 19th minute, and the ambitious guests could not answer with anything.

Atletico Mineiro made their way to the playoffs of Copa Libertadores. And this week the Roosters have already played against Boca Juniors itself. Perhaps the pause in Argentine football affected, and the Brazilians were able to gain a goalless draw away. And despite the canceled goal by the Genoese, they generally acted from a position of strength in Buenos Aires. But this draw gives Atletico Mineiro a very deceptive advantage. Wouldn't Cuca want to rotate the squad ahead of the return match against the Argentines? On the other hand, Hulk (by the way, the former Zenit star hasn't scored since the beginning of June but managed to make five assists) and the company just got in excellent shape in Brasileirao. A 0-1 win over America Mineiro in the last round became the 4th victory in a row, and this spurt allowed the Roosters to climb to the 3rd place. And of course, they want to gain momentum even more.
Atletico Mineiro plays well against Corinthians, especially recently. Now the Roosters have a streak of three victories in a row. It began back in 2019, and Timao lost both matches in the last draw of Serie A (2-3 and 1-2). Corinthians now scores a little but concedes not much as well. On the other hand, Atletico Mineiro will keep Boca's arrival in mind and save energy. We bet on Under 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
