Fortaleza-Atletico Mineiro is a match of the 30th day of the Brasileirao and is played on Wednesday night-Thursday at 02:45: stats, TV, likely lineups, prediction.
Big chance for Fortaleza to momentarily take back second place, overtake Palmeiras and move to -2 from leading Botafogo. Yes, Leao are still in the thick of the title race: on the strength of their best domestic performance-no one has done better than them between home walls-the men led by Argentine Juan Pablo Vojvoda can dream big. The main problem, however, remains the away games: away from home Fortaleza cannot get into gear and the points won are only 16 out of 42.
In this final rush Leao will try to turn the tide. It must first react to the defeat suffered last October 5 at home to Gremio (3-1), which also ended in a numerical inferiority. Fortaleza restarts by hosting Atletico Mineiro, a team far from the noble zones of the standings. Galo has been on the rise in recent weeks, but for the moment it is only ninth and cannot cultivate title ambitions. The Bianconeri’s goal is to try to get back into the top six, a position that would allow them to start from the second phase in the next Copa Libertadores. In any case, the lineup coached by Gabriel Milito (Diego’s brother) has strung together three positive results, beating Vasco da Gama and Gremio between cup and league and drawing 2-2 with Vitoria. The Bianconeri’s last defeat came in late September in São Paulo against Palmeiras.

The Prediction
Atletico Mineiro is undefeated from seven meetings with Fortaleza but this year Leao is a steamroller in front of its own public: that’s why we believe it can tick off Galo as well. Atletico Mineiro by the way has as many as eleven absentees, there are just four starters among the summoned players: Everson, Saravia, Otávio and Scarpa.
