Palmeiras is in bad shape now, the team lost 3 matches in a row in Serie A, although such a slump is due to the fact that Palmeiras gave all their efforts in the semifinals of the Libertadores Cup, where they lost to Boca Juniors. Now Palmeiras must focus on Serie A, namely on maintaining a place in the top-4.
Atletico Mineiro dropped out of the Libertadores Cup at the stage of 1/8 finals, so all their energies are focused on Serie A. So far, the club is in 9th place, but is only 4 points behind the top-4, so every game is extremely important now.
Both teams today will fight for 3 points, the fight in the standings is now very tight, each match can be decisive. Palmeiras although on the decline, but the last home matches have been successful, although Atletico Mineiro in away matches picks up quite a lot of points, so today is likely to score goals from both sides.
Prediction: both teams to score. We recommend the “BTTS - Yes” bet, odds 2.08
