Atlético-MG x Flamengo face each other in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil; check out more information on how teams arrive for the duel!
Atlético-MG x Flamengo face each other again in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. With both teams having two of the best squads in Brazilian football today, it would not be surprising if the duel was valid for the final of the tournament, but the draw wanted it to happen already in the round of 16.
Atlético-MG arrives as the favorite for the match, first for playing at home and second for having got the better of the opponent last weekend, for the Brazilian Championship. The victory placed Galo within the G4 of the competition, with 21 points, while Flamengo is in the 14th position of the table, just two points from the relegation zone.
CHANNEL – ATHLETISTIC:
Flamengo, on the other hand, is still looking to fit in under the command of Dorival Jr., there were two defeats and one victory since the coach took over the team. A good performance in the Copa do Brasil is a great chance to turn things around in the season, as the Brasileirão has proved increasingly difficult for the red-black, who still have the Libertadores dispute ahead.
With the victory last Sunday, 19, Atlético-MG equaled Flamengo, with 31 victories in direct confrontations. In addition, there were still another 20 draws, adding up to a total of 82 duels played between them. Nacho Fernández and ademir scored the goals that ensured Galo’s triumph at Mineirão.
