Cruzeiro has a great final in the Campeonato Mineiro and it’s not just up to them to qualify for the next stage; dryer will be on in Tombense
The recipe is simple for cruise in the last round of the first phase of the Mineiro Championship: win the Democrat and hope for a stumble tombense this Saturday, the 4th. Raposa’s situation in the state is delicate, but the team arrives with the possibility of reversing the complicated start to the season it had under the command of Paulo Pezzolano. The expectation is that the Fox will continue in the fight for the title of the competition.
The last round of the first phase of the Mineiro Championship will be held during the afternoon of this Saturday, 4th, and all games will take place from 4:30 pm Brasília time). Therefore, the day will be full of expectations, especially at Toca da Raposa. Cruzeiro will receive Democrata SL, while Tombense, its main rival in the group, will visit América-MG.
Currently, the two rivals have the same number of points and lead group C. The teams have won 11 points so far and have Democrata and Ipatinga on their tail, since the difference between the leaders and the last placed group is just two points. Therefore, the last round of the Campeonato Mineiro promises to shake up the fans of the four teams.
Cruzeiro does not depend only on you to qualify. Raposa, in addition to needing to score three points, will also be rooting for Tombense’s stumbling block. Celeste’s rivals may even tie the game against América-MG, but if that happens, Pezzolano’s team will need to do their part and beat Democrata SL. Therefore, tension must be in the air during the round.
In addition, Cruzeiro and Tombense also cannot afford to stumble in the last round of the state. That’s because, if Democrata or Ipatinga win in the round, one of the two could assume leadership of the grouping. The chance is slim, but it could happen and both leaders will need to keep an eye on their rivals.
