Atlético Mineiro vs Santos: Match preview
The two teams are currently close to each other in the table and have similar chances of securing a place in the Copa Libertadores.
However, Atlético Mineiro have a slightly better chance. After 29 rounds, Atlético have collected 44 points and sit seventh in the table. In their last five matches, the team have recorded three wins and two draws. They are four points behind fifth place, so they still have every chance of securing a spot in the Copa Libertadores.
Santos sit one place below Atlético Mineiro. Neymar's team have currently collected 42 points from 29 matches and occupy eighth place in the table. They are six points behind fifth place, meaning that catching the teams above them and securing a Copa Libertadores spot will be extremely difficult. However, Santos have won twice and drawn once in their last three matches, so their form is encouraging. If they can maintain this run, they will have a good chance of making a push up the table.
Predicted line-ups
- Atlético Mineiro: Gabriel Delfim, Vitão, Lyanco, Renan Lodi, Natanael, Cissé, Reinier, Cuello, Maycon, Fred, Bernard

Prediction
The teams are close to each other in the table, and I think the battle for a place in the Copa Libertadores, as well as for a higher league position in general, will be intense. My betting tip is over 2 goals.
