The latest Brasileirão season is about to begin, and we couldn’t be more excited about it, as all teams will try to take the trophy away from the current defending champions, Palmeiras.
There is not much to judge right now when it comes to the teams’ current forms, as things are unexpected at the beginning of the season, but we can try to figure out where these teams are likely to be after the break from last season.
Right now, we are looking into the clash where Corinthians will be hosting Atletico Mineiro. We are talking about two big, historic, and successful teams in the Brasileirão, so this match will always be remarkable.
Now, we are preparing for an excellent opener in the most important football league outside Europe.

Why Bet on Corinthians?
Corinthians have been active lately, landing a draw in their first match on the Copa Sudamericana group stage, only to follow it up with an excellent 4-0 win over Nacional on their Tuesday match.
Now, the team looks forward to repeating the feat in their first clash on the Brasileirão, and they need to capitalize on their momentum if they want to improve from the results they had in their last season. The Paulista club was threatened with relegation until late in the season, which is unacceptable for an institution this size.
In the Campeonato Paulista, they had a poor performance in Group C and didn’t reach the playoffs. On the Bright side, they have more time to rest and prepare for the league.
Why Bet on Atlético Mineiro?
Atletico Mineiro’s momentum is remarkable, as they have just recently claimed the win in the Campeonato Mineiro final over Cruzeiro. They also added a 4 – 1 victory against Caracas FC on the Libertadores Group Stage.
With such good results and form as of late, plus knowing that they landed the 3rd spot in the last season, we can only expect good results in their campaign.
However, they poorly started the season last time and only recovered towards the end to enter the fight for the championship. If they want real title chances, they need to start performing from matchday 1.
Betting Analysis: Corinthians vs. Atlético Mineiro
Over the last decade, there has been certain paternity in favor of the Minas de Gerais team. Of the last fourteen games, eight ended in an Atlético victory, while four matches went to the Coringão.
Both teams come well and are eager to kickstart their campaign by going all in from the first clash.
Even though things point toward a draw, we are expecting Atletico Mineiro to make a huge statement to the other teams by breaking Corinthian’s momentum with a great 2-3 win in this first match.
We’ll go for the visitors at 2.92. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $192 for a total payout of $292.
