Stadium: Independência
09.11.2023, 01:00
The two bottom-placed teams will meet in this round, with their fate practically sealed. América-MG and Coritiba will both be relegated to the Série B, but it remains to be seen when and which of the two teams will drop first. If América loses this match, relegation will be official, and even if they draw, the Miners could also be relegated in this round if there is a combination of results from their opponents. Coritiba can't be relegated in Round 33, but it could be in the next round. Both teams will want to win this game to escape last place rather than to avoid relegation.

The Rabbit held the rival Rooster to a draw in a derby that served to dignify its symbol. América fought hard as usual and picked up its second draw in a row. The team hasn't won in eleven matches, but only once in those games has it lost by more than one goal, precisely against RB Bragantino, which is fighting for the title. Even in the losses, América has always been a tough opponent. Two points behind Coritiba, the Rabbit wants to win and get out of last place.
Coritiba
The Coxa lost to Goiás, suffering its second home defeat in a row. The team's performance was very poor, and only the visitors wanted to win the game. Discouragement is normal for a team that knows it's going down to the Série B. Coritiba must at least avoid finishing bottom of the league. Beating América-MG will undoubtedly help to avoid the most unwanted of positions.
Expert Betting Tips
Although América is in last place, it hasn't played badly and seems in better shape than Coritiba. In the previous match, the Rabbit drew with a strong Atlético Mineiro side. I'm leaning more towards a win for América, which recently seems more determined than its opponent. Leaving last place could be enough motivation for the Mineiros to win the game, as relegation is inevitable for both teams.
