MATCH PREVIEW
MAIN PREDICTION: DRAW
America Mineiro were the big surprise package in the early stages of this year’s Brasileirao, but the magic seems to have faded. Their 1-0 loss away at Gremio on Sunday was their fourth in the last five league games, winning just once against lowly Atletico Paranaense, and they have since dropped from the top six to 13th place. The team looked clueless away from home in their last outing and they have so far been relying on their home matches to secure points, with 12 of their 13 points claimed in front of their own crowd.
Chapecoense hosted Cruzeiro, who were inside the top four when the referee first blew the whistle, on Sunday, winning 2-0. The result has allowed them to create a four-point buffer between themselves and Atletico Paranaense in the last relegation place. However, the precious home win was only their second out of the last six league games (one draw, three defeats) and overall, they are not in great shape despite the good performance and victory.
Neither team have impressed so far. Chapecoense haven’t won a single match away from home this season (two draws, four losses) and America Mineiro have the third worst defensive record of the league, with 18 conceded. I think this match will end level.
SECOND PREDICTION: HILO – HIGH
The last two encounters between these teams two years ago finished with an average of 3.5 total goals scored. Seven of America Mineiro's 11 league games have produced three or more total goals, as have four of Chapecoense's six away matches this season. I expect to see a high number of goals.
HEAD TO HEAD
America Mineiro and Chapecoense have met only four times since 2013. Chapecoense have won three times and drawn once.
