Atlético-MG vs Internacional Prediction: Inter could get a good result

Atlético-MG and Internacional will meet this weekend in a match where the Miners could field a secondary side. Atlético is well placed to reach the Copa Libertadores final and is preparing carefully for the game with River Plate despite a 3-0 win in the first leg. Internacional hasn't lost in ten matches and could use the opportunity to get a good result in Belo Horizonte.

Atlético surprisingly beat River Plate 3-0 at home in the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores when everyone expected a more balanced game. The Argentinians underperformed, and the final, which will take place in their stadium, now seems more distant. Deyverson was the star of the show, scoring the first two goals. Atlético extended its unbeaten streak against Argentinian clubs in the Copa Libertadores to 14. However, anything is possible in football, so Gabriel Milito will rest several players against Internacional to ensure a better physical condition for the second leg in Buenos Aires. The Rooster is also in the Copa do Brasil final, so the club could win three titles this season after winning the Campeonato Mineiro.

The Colorado defeated rival Grêmio 1-0 and hasn't lost for ten games, going through the best period of the season. Roger Machado has done a brilliant job since taking charge of the club, which is now in a position to enter the Copa Libertadores qualifying rounds. The Gaúchos are in sixth place but must finish in the top four to qualify directly for the group stage. Flamengo is in fourth place, but Inter can still get there as the Cariocas are only two points ahead.

Atlético Mineiro is close to the Copa Libertadores final and will play the second leg of the semi-final in Buenos Aires next week. Gabriel Milito will probably field a secondary team against Internacional. The Gaúchos are in excellent form and could take advantage of the circumstances to win in Belo Horizonte. On the other hand, the Miners will be playing confidently but without some of their key players. I'm betting on a draw, as there are no favorites.
