We are currently at matchday 13 out of 38 in the Brasileirão Serie A, and now we turn our heads towards a match between a team who is looking to get to the top, and one that is trying to fight its way out of the Relegation zone.
Two of the most important teams from Minas de Gerais will face in a regional classic that, although is not one of the most famous from Brazil, always brings great matches, thousands of fans, and the typical Brasilian effervescence. Also, this time it could have great implications for the table.

Where Can I Watch?
Why Bet on Atlético Mineiro?
Atletico Mineiro may not be having the best season out there, but they are not having the worst; they are in the 10th spot with 5 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses in their run. This could make their season look even worse than the last one (they finish 8th), but it could be misleading.
On their current run, we could see that the Galo is fighting for the top spots, as they may be in the equator of the table, but they are only 4 points away from getting to the 2nd spot. Things are pretty tight at this stage of the season, and every match keeps us on the edge of our seats.
They come from a loss in their most recent outing and 2 draws previously, but they are looking at this match as their opportunity to get to the winning column again. We all know that derbys have a different vibe, so it’s the perfect chance.
Why Bet on América MG?
The visitors, America MG are in the 19th spot and require points to climb out of a bad spot, as their 2 wins, 2 losses, and 8 defeats. The kind of performance that could lead you to relegation in the ruthless Brasileirão. Contrary to their rivals, there is no doubt that this version of the team is much worst than the one from last year.
The Coelho has been underwhelming so far, and they need to get their plans together to climb out of the pickle they got themselves into.
With 3 losses and a draw in their last 5, their chances may not be looking good, but they will likely come in with fire in their eyes. As we said previously, classics have a different meaning for the players so anything could happen.
Betting Analysis: Atlético Mineiro vs. América MG
This clash places a team doing decently, against one who has been achieving awful results. It is due to this same reason that we simply have to pick an Atletico Mineiro that comes in way better form, over an America MG team who needs to enter survival mode and claw their way out of relegation.
We expect the match to end with a 2-0 score in favor of the hosts.
Go for a victory for the Black & White at -192. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $52.08 for a total payout of $152.08.
