Grêmio vs América-MG Prediction: Grêmio has a good chance to climb to the top 4

Perhaps few people remember that Grêmio played in the Série B last season; such is the quality the team shows in the Brasileirão. The Tricolor Gaúcho is in sixth position with 17 points, just two points off the league podium. The Porto Alegre team is still undefeated at home and, against América, has a good opportunity to get the 3 points and move even higher in the standings.

América is in a relegation place, in 18th place with only 8 points and just one point won away from home.

Grêmio

After four games without defeats in the league, Renato Portaluppi's team lost 3-0 to Flamengo at the Maracanã. The last loss was also away from home against a title contender, Palmeiras. At the Arena do Grêmio, where the team is very strong, a return to winning ways is expected, as also the goals of Luis Suárez, who has not scored since the derby with Internacional, four games ago.

América-MG

While the team from Minas Gerais is in the relegation zone, nervousness will always be present among the players. The Coelho is one point behind Corinthians, who, surprisingly, is the team immediately above the relegation places. The distance is still short to get out of the Z4, but it is necessary to start getting some points away from home, where América feels very uncomfortable. Last round, the Miners picked up a point in the 96' by drawing 2-2 against Athletico Paranaense at home.

Expert Betting Tips

Grêmio has yet to lose at home, and América has yet to win away. Someday things will change but probably not this time.
