Cuiaba hosts Atletico Mineiro in round 9 of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, July 5th at Arena Pantanal (Cuiabá)
The place of Cuiaba among the outsiders of the Brazilian Championship is quite reasonable. The Green-Golds didn’t gain a single victory in six matches. Moreover, Cuiaba failed to score in four of the last five games. It managed to upset the opponent’s goalkeeper only in the match against Sao Paulo (2-2). Although the Green-Golds scored in only one game, they managed to bring the match to a draw three times. Interestingly, seven goals were scored in the last five matches with Cuiaba's participation. And six of them took place in the first half. Bookmakers give a rather high coefficient for the fact that the first half will be more productive than the second.

Atletico Mineiro is in the group of leaders, but at the same time it is five points behind the leading Bragantino. The unstable results do not allow the Roosters to claim a higher position. Atletico Mineiro's players scored in four of their last five matches. But the team managed to gain victory in only two of them. I would like to note that the Roosters played three of the last five games away. They lost to Ceara (2-1) and Santos (2-0) and gained victory over Internacional (0-1). Atletico Mineiro regularly slows down at the end of matches. The club conceded the second goal from Santos in the 93rd minute, Ceara snatched the victory in the 96th, and Chapecoense escaped defeat by scoring in the 80th minute (1-1). At the same time, Atletico Mineiro is putting all its might into the first half of the matches. The Roosters scored seven goals in their last five games, and five of them took place in the first half.
Cuiaba managed to keep a clean sheet in only one of the last five home matches. At the same time, it is not a problem for Atletico Mineiro to score away. The Roosters scored in four of their last five away games. Beyond that, Atletico Mineiro scored five of seven goals in the first half. And this trend will probably continue.
Prediction for the match: Atletico-MG to score over 0.5 goals in the first half
