Vasco vs Atletico MG Prediction: A difficult challenge for Vasco

Vasco will welcome Atletico MG in the second match of the semifinals of Copa do Brazil. The visitors are coming to Rio de Janeiro with a slight advantage as they won in the first match 2:1. However, nothing is over, and we can say that both teams have anꦗ equal chance to advance to the next round. Atletico MG are in better form, but Vasco will have loud support from the stands which can lead them to win.

Vasco are certainly under huge pressure, as they are winless in their last 7 matches in all competitions, drawing 4 and losing 3 of them. Advancing to the final and fighting for the trophy will be a great achievement in a very bad season for this team which are in 10th place in the l෴eague. In the last ꦐmatch, they were humiliated by Sao Paolo and lost 3:0, and the fact that they lost only with one goal difference in the first match against Atletico MG is very important for their confidence.

Atletico MG can’t be too proud of their performances in the league, they are in 9th place with 4 points more than Vasco. However, their form is much better, so in the last five matches, they have 2 wins, 2 draws, and a defeat. They weren’t very happy with the result in the first match, because they had enough chancesඣ to score more goals and win with a bigger difference. Their away form is concerning, they have 3 defeats,🧔 a draw, and a win in the last 5 away matches, so they won’t be too comfortable playing against Vasco as visitors.

Besides the result in the first match and the advantage that Atletico MG have, I will say that this duel is far from over, especially because both teams need good result in th🧔is competition to save the season after bad performances in the domestic league. Vasco won in the last two matches in this stadium, but now I think that Atletico MG are favorite to win and advance to the final.
