Atletico Mineiro, Recent FormLast time out, Atlético Mineiro recorded an impressive 3-0 away win against Flamengo. In that game they had 42% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Flamengo who had 19 attempts and 4 on target.
Their boss Luiz Felipe Scolari has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 13 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 4 goals conceded across those matches. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 8 games in a row.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Atlético Mineiro, Paulo Paulinho will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Sao Paulo, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 1-0 away win over Bahia in their last league game, Sao Paulo will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They achieved 67% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Bahia's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Dorival Júnior will be pleased with his team's recent defensive record, having conceded just 1 goal in their last 6 games, but he will have concerns that his team are not scoring many goals, and therefore dropping points. They've kept a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win. Winning away from home has been a bit of a problem for them this season having only managed to win 1 of their 18 league games on the road.
Goalscorer Jonathan Calleri will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Sao Paulo.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Sao Paulo, losing 0-2 to Atlético Mineiro.
Atlético have managed to keep a clean sheet against Tricolor Paulista in each of their previous 3 meetings at Arena MRV. Sao Paulo have struggled to break down the Galo defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
In the league, Atlético has had a good run at home against Sao Paulo, being unbeaten in their last 6 meetings at Arena MRV.
Alexander Pato has scored on each of Sao Paulo's last 1 visits to Atlético.
Atlético manager Luiz Felipe Scolari has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Rodrigo Battaglia (Sprained knee), Bruno Fuchs (Thigh) and Eduardo Vargas (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With both Rodrigo Nestor (Knee) and Marcos Paulo (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season and Jonathan Calleri (Ankle), Giuliano Galoppo (Cruciate ligament), João Moreira (Thigh), Alexander Pato (Foot), James Rodríguez (Calf) and Igor Vinícius (Groin) all unavailable in the shorter term, Sao Paulo manager Dorival Júnior will be hoping none of his other players pick up a knock going into this clash.
