Gremio take on the visitors America Mineiro in the round 11 match of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Friday, June 23rd at Arena do Grêmio (Porto Alegre).
In the previous season, Gremio competed in Serie B and secured promotion to the top league by finishing in second place. However, the start of the new championship has been quite good for the "immortal tricolor" team. Currently, they are in the top six of the table, with just two points separating them from the third position. True, in the last round, Gremio suffered a defeat against Fluminense (0-3) as the away team. However, they had previously achieved three consecutive victories in the championship, defeating Internacional (3-1), Atlético Paranaense (2-1), and São Paulo (2-1). Their last two home matches resulted in wins. I believe they should secure three points in the match against one of the league's underdogs.

Meanwhile, Atlético Mineiro are currently one of the weakest teams in terms of both playing quality and results. They are positioned in the relegation zone, in 18th place. While they manage to gather some points and even win matches at home, their away performances are among the worst in the league. In four away matches, they have only obtained one point with three defeats against Botafogo (0-2), São Paulo (2-3), and Santos (0-3). América Mineiro has also suffered three losses in their home matches. As a result, out of ten matches, they have six defeats. In the match against today's opponent, Grêmio, it is highly likely that they will experience their seventh loss.
It has been a while since Gremio celebrated a victory in their head-to-head matches against América Mineiro. I believe that in this match, the hosts have a realistic chance to please their fans. After all, Gremio is objectively considered the favorite in this encounter. It is only natural when the sixth-placed team at home faces a team positioned third from the bottom of the table. Gremio has achieved three wins and two draws at home this season. On the other hand, América Mineiro has only managed to gather one point in four away matches in the championship. Betting on a Gremio victory here may seem ordinary, but it is highly likely to bring positive results.
Prediction for the match: Gremio to win.
