Atletico Mineiro vs Corinthians Betting Tips and Prediction. The opening leg of Atletico Mineiro’s Copa do Brasil’s last-16 match against Corinthians will take place at the Estadio Mineirao on Wednesday.
Despite having a mixed record this year, the home team is still optimistic about winning the cup at the end of the campaign. In the previous round of the competition, they played Gremio Esportivo Brasil. Rodrigo Battaglia and Hulk scored goals in the first leg to help them come from behind and win 2-1. The second leg ended in a 1-1 tie.
Corinthians will be hoping for better fortune in this week’s Copa do Brasil after a dismal start to their Brasileiro Serie A campaign. When they faced Remo in the competition’s previous round, they lost the first leg 2-0 but went on to win the tie on penalties thanks to a 2-0 victory in the second leg.
The guests are winless under their new manager Vanderlei Luxemburgo, and they will be aiming to win for the first time under the seasoned coach this week.
