ATLETICO MINEIRO - CRICIUMA: PREDICTIONS

Atletico Mineiro meet up with Criciuma in an ill-timed game for the home side. In the middle of a Copa Libertadores two legged semi-final this game will surely be played with a second string.

Atletico Mineiro will go into this game with a likely side made up of reserves or youth players. After a historic run in Copa Libertadores they were beaten in Argentina 2-0 by Newells. The tie is not over though as Atletico are capable of beating any side on the continent and 2 goals is not beyond them. This game is an inconvenience and will be disregarded for sure. Atletico Mineiro have a strong squad in truth but they have already chopped and changed their squad around the continental qualifiers. So far in Brazil Mineiro are Won 1, drawn 1 and lost 3; all three defeats coming away from home.

Criciuma are one of the favourite for relegation and the side from Santa Catarina are not expected to fare well this season. As is usual in Brazil they have started fairly well at home but have lost both away matches (but they were difficult game – Internacional and Fluminense) So far this season they have 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

ATLETICO MINEIRO - CRICIUMA: BETTING TIPS

The odds are not taking into account the Copa Libertadores match that follows and the prices will soon disappear on Criciuma and the draw. Teams in South America often shun leagues games when such big games come along and with a place in the final at stake this match is irrelevant. We take Criciuma +0.5 at 2.40 (bet365). With the price effectively Atletico reserves v Criciuma its big value even with the Santa Catarina side likely to be spurred on by the chance of a rare victory in Belo Horizonte.
