Fluminese vs Atletico Mineiro Prediction: The Guests Would Catch A Big Flu

The clash between Fluminense and Atletico Mineiro features a top-table clash between hosts Fluminese who tow the path of consistency and the guests who have maintained a five-game unbeaten streak; winning three of five games, and Atlético Mineiro. Although they are one point behind, they have the impetus to conjure a storm at Estadio General Raulino de Oliviera. How many goals are to be expected in this clash?

Fluminense - Team Analysis

(5th): Last Five Matches: D-W-L-L-W

Seventeen (17) points high, Fluminense defends the honor of the home stands after lady luck checked out on them in the 85th minute when Alesson scored the equalizing goal for Goias, denying them a significant win. They began the season with a catalog of goals, but seem to be backtracking after winning only two of the last five games, losing out on two occasions. They have been away from the home fans in five games and would bring their best to avoid a shameful defeat. With this home game, Head Coach, Fernando Diniz intends to repeat a winning show in front of his crowd as he did against Braganitino; a game which ended 2-1 in favor of the Big Flu.

Atletico Mineiro

(4th): Last five Matches: D-W-D-W-W

As the norm, Atletico Mineiro storms the pitch on the verge of another intimidation after tying it out within an unfortunate 1-1 stalemate with Bragantino. Luis Felipe Scolari may have to check his onions again if he wishes to stamp authority on the hosts, who defeated Bragantino two games prior to the identical clash. Although the Galo squad has not gone goalless in the last nine games, they need to sit up and realize that they need to play to win; not just scoring. They are sure of putting one or two past the opponents' defenses, but they need a win.
