Fortaleza vs Atletico Mineiro Prediction: The Guests Enjoy Heavy Preference

Fortaleza locks horns with Atletico Mineiro for Matchday 12 of the brasileiro Serie A. The rivalry between these two mid-table sides has procured 16 encounters with the Leao do Pici winning five times, losing eight times and tying it out on three occasions. The guests approach the Castelao pitch unbeaten in the last five games, whereas the Roosters haven’t had such luck, losing two of the most recent five outings.

Last Five Matches: W-L-D-W-L

In Five games, the Leao do Pici has enjoyed victory just twice. After the 2-0 victory against Vasco Da Gama, they shared spoils in a goalless draw with Bahia, then they pulled an unbelievable performance at the Copa Do Brasil, where they defeated league elites Palmeiras They suffered a 0-2 defeat to league giants Botafogo, but cover for losses in the 1-0 recovery win against Cruzeiro. A win for the Lions in this game automatically registers them in the top 5 spots. An urgency lurks behind this game as they need all the momentum they can gather to face the next Palestino in the Copa Sudamericana.

Last five Matches: D-D-W-D-W

Regardless of the fact that they are favored for victory, Atletico Mineiro would definitely be a lot more on the attacking side of the pitch. They impressively improved their league standings after standing their ground in the last five games, staying unbeaten as they charted their path in the Brasileiro. Three stalemates and two wins see the Roosters in the fifth spot, as they fortify the nerve to defeat the hosts. Since they suffered the red-card suspension against Coritiba, they have played on eggshells, not wanting to sacrifice too many options. The last direct two games show evidence of carefulness, where they tired 1-1 against Fluminense and Bragantino. For this game, they are preferred for victory and would look to maintain their unbeaten run.

A Tight game is anticipated because both sides have goal-scoring chances, an enthusiastic midfield, and hope for a next-game win.

• Both Teams are decently paired and we see anything that happens to one end, occurring on the other. Hence, our final prediction leaves Under 2.5 Match Goals at 1.60 odds (bet365);
• Regardless of this fact, We expect an Away Win /Draw and Over Two Goals at 1.68 odds (Coinplay);
• They seem more consistent and would try to secure the most points here. They would also seek to maintain squad consolidation since the midfield may need reinforcement to postulate chances up front. It may not be too impulsive to predict a BTTS-Yes at 1.73 odds (1xbet);

Best of luck!
