Grêmio will receive Atlético Mineiro in its Arena, next weekend, in an attempt to win again and take the leader Botafogo out of the comfort zone. Led by the Uruguayan Luis Suárez, the Porto Alegre side has had an incredible season, surpassing the expectations of fans and analysts.
Atlético Mineiro, however, is again suffering from the distrust of its fans, since the team has not won for five games and is in 12th place. Before the start of the season, many pointed to Atlético as one of the favorite teams for the title. Now, however, the analysis is different: will this team be able to escape from the last positions and remain among the top 10 teams in the table?
The next meeting between these two great teams in Brazilian football will serve to answer many questions. The Brasileirão is already reaching half of its duration and those teams that remain firm will certainly achieve something positive at the end of the competition.
When:
Saturday, July 20th – 8:00 pm ET at the Arena do Grêmio
Moneyline odds:
Grêmio +120
Atlético Mineiro +215
Draw offs:
+225
Where Can I Watch?
Why Bet on Grêmio?
When it was on the field for the last time, in a match for the Brasileirão, Grêmio faced a very difficult opponent and was defeated in front of its fans. The opponent was the leader Botafogo, who had not lost for many rounds. They doesn’t have a bad match, but their opponent was superior and took better advantage of the opportunities they created.
Despite this setback, Grêmio has one of the best active players in Brazilian football: Luis Suárez. The Uruguay striker has put on a show when he enters the field, contributing with goals, assists, and a very cheerful and determined football.
Playing at home, and facing an opponent in crisis, the Gaucho should have a good chance of winning a positive result.
Why Bet on Atlético Mineiro?
Atlético Mineiro is not going through its best phase of the season. Without winning for five games, coach Felipão has found it very difficult to find the ideal team. Even with athletes of the quality of Hulk and Paulinho, the DT still hasn’t managed to get the players to play well, bringing bad results in the last rounds.
The Galo’s last victory was in early June, when they beat Alianza Lima, away from home, for the Copa Libertadores. In the Brasileirão, however, the last triumph took place against its biggest rival – Cruzeiro -, on the third day of June this year.
Going through this troubled moment, Atlético Mineiro will have to forget the problems and focus on solutions to surprise the great Grêmio team.
Final Betting Analysis: Grêmio vs. Atlético Mineiro
Grêmio has many reasons to beat Atlético Mineiro, but the way the team has been playing is the best possible argument. It is an organized, cohesive team that seeks the goal throughout the game. Even with their last setback at home, the Porto Alegre side is pretty strong at home.
Atletico Mineiro was the last team beaten by the Gaucho before they got relegated, meaning that, even if they lost that last encounter for the Brasileirão, they could try to take advantage of that bitter memory to take a toll on its foe’s confidence. However, things are just not looking well for the Galo, so we think they’ll lose 2-1.
If you put $100 into Grêmio’s win, you could get $142 back for a total payout of $242.
