A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : Brazil: Serie A
Venue: Estádio José Pinheiro Borda
Sunday 29th April 2024, 0000hrs (GMT)
Internacional will be looking to bounce back from their recent defeat in the Brazilian top flight to Athletico PR in last weekend’s Serie A action when the hosts return to their Estádio José Pinheiro Borda for this upcoming encounter against early season strugglers Atletico GO.
A 1-0 loss at Athletico PR prevented Internacional from making it three wins on the trot in the domestic top flight but having previously posted back-to-back wins in their opening two games of this new campaign with wins against Bahia and Palmeiras respectively, the hosts will still feel confident about their chances in this upcoming clash.
Internacional have won six out of their last seven games overall in the Brazilian top flight which includes previous wins on home soil against Bragantino and Botafogo towards the end of last season, so the hosts will be in good spirits.
Atletico GO sit second from bottom in the early Serie A table and without a point to their name as the visitors have lost each of their opening three games of this new term after being handed losses by the likes of Flamengo, Botafogo and Sao Paulo respectively.
Atletico GO therefore face a tough assignment when they make their way to the Estádio José Pinheiro Borda for this upcoming tussle with Internacional especially as the visitors have now failed to win any of their last eight games overall in Serie A.
Five defeats within these eight matches include previous losses to Sao Paulo and Santos towards the end of the previous campaign while results away from home doesn’t fill one with much confidence.
Indeed, Atletico GO have picked up just the single win from their previous 15 outings on the road, slipping to nine defeats in the process as well, so the prospects of an away win here look slim at best.
The Betting Verdict
Internacional won the last meeting against Atletico GO 2-1 away from home back in September of last season and the hosts should register another win here as well.
The Pick :
Internacional 1-0 Atletico GO
