Atletico MG will be eager to bounce back from a heavy 3-0 loss away from home at Fluminense in the Brazilian top flight over the weekend when Jorge Sampaoli’s side return to their Arena MRV for this upcoming clash against bottom club Sport Recife on Wednesday night.
Atletico MG have produced a mixed bag of results overall in all competitions in recent weeks as the hosts have managed to capture just two wins in their last 11 matches and they currently occupy a disappointing 15th place in the Serie A standings.
Nevertheless, Atletico MG have been dealt just one defeat on home soil in this Serie A campaign with a solid home record of 5-5-1 13/9 which looks set to give the upcoming hosts a welcome boost ahead of this clash.
Sport Recife have fared even worse than their upcoming hosts as the visitors sit rock-bottom of the Brazilian top flight table having picked up just two wins within the entire campaign along with being involved in 10 draws as well as being dealt 13 defeats.
Needless to say current form suggests Sport Recife face another tough challenge away from home against Atletico MG on Wednesday night as Daniel Paulista’s side have collected just one win from their last eight matches in the domestic top flight.
That rare highlight came in the form of a 1-0 home win against Corinthians but having also slipped to recent losses at the hands of Palmeiras, Vasco da Gama and Fortaleza respectively, Sport Recife will do well to pick up a point in this encounter.
The Betting Verdict
Atletico MG have lost just once in the last seven meetings with Sport Recife, picking up five wins in the process.
The Pick :
Atletico MG 1-0 Sport Recife
