After a win over Colo-Colo in the South American Cup and a win over America in the championship, the Reds have a three-match unbeaten streak in Serie A: draws with Atletico Paranaense and Sao Paulo and a 1:2 defeat by Palmeiras. The results were poor, dropping them to seventh place in the league standings. Before Sunday's pool, Inter is one point behind Atletico Paranaense in the Libertadores Cup zone. Inter's home statistics are 11th in the division: +4=4-1, 17:11 goal difference.
Atletico Mineiro
Atletico Mineiro hasn't been a favorite of late. On 14 July, they dropped out of the Brazilian Cup, losing to Flamengo. And after that, they played three matches in the national championship and scored only four points: a victory over Botafogo, a draw against Cuiaba, and a defeat against Corinthians. As a result, they dropped to fifth place in the standings, leaving them out of direct contention for the Libertadores Cup and letting Flamengo move into that zone. However, if they win in Porto Alegre, the Galo will return to the top four. The Athletes' away statistics are fifth in the division, +3=5-1, 11:10 goal difference.
Expert Betting Tips
Recently, Atletico Mineiro and Inter have played each other only with a TU (2.5). The importance of the upcoming meeting is hard to overestimate. The Reds, if they win, can return to the top 6, while the Galo, if they win, will be ahead of Flamengo again and take place in the top 4. We expect a hard-fought, low-scoring encounter that could well end in a draw.
