Palmeiras vs Atlético MG – Brazilian Serie A : Palmeiras hosts Atlético MG at the Allianz Parque
This Sunday, July 22nd, on a match of the Brazilian Serie A.
This is a match of the 14th round of the competition and it will be played at 20:00 (London time). Palmeiras and Atlético MG feature in one of the great Brazilian derbies fighting for the top of the league table.
At the moment, Atlético MG’s situation is clearly better. The team is in 2nd place of the Brazilian Serie A but they returned from the World Cup break with a loss against Grêmio.
We should acknowledge that it is a tough streak to face Grêmio and Palmeiras away from home.
Furthermore, Atlético MG has lost important players during the World Cup break.
Otero is injured and absence, he that was being one of the main players of the team. But especially Roger Guedes that was the top goal scorer of the team and main player of Galo on the competition.
On the other side we have Palmeiras that returned to the Brazilian Serie A with a draw against Santos. Due to the all the money spent by the club, the pressure is always huge about the team’s development.
And 3 winless matches and only the 7th place on the Brazilian Serie A is too little. I predict diffiiculties for Atlético MG here.
Palmeiras vs Atlético MG – Betting Tip and Prediction:
Palmeiras is a better team globally and since they really need the result, they should put pressure on Atlético.
It is still unclear how this Galo will behave without those key players and therefore, the best option here is betting in favour of Palmeiras.
