Juventude vs Cruzeiro Prediction: Cruzeiro needs a miracle

Cruzeiro will travel to Caxias do Sul to face Juventude to attempt to qualify for the Copa Libertadores. The Miners ar൩e in n🅰inth place but will only enter the competition if they finish eighth. Juventude escaped relegation and will play with confidence.

Juventude

The Papo achieved the season's goal after a magnificent away win against São Paulo. The Gaúchos have been playing very well in recent games and avoided relegation. Juventude could even qualify ꦿfor the Copa Sudamericana if it beats Cruzeiro. Coach Fábio Matias arrived six rounds ago with the club in the relegation zone. Juventude, in that period, has won three games, drawn two, and lost just one. The results have been good, and the team is playing offensively. Juventude fully deserves to play in the Série A next year.

Cruzeiro

Fernando Diniz is not getting the results expected at the helm of Cruzeiro. Diniz arrived at✅ the Belo Horizonte club at the end of September and has only won two out of 14 games. The next match will probably be his last at Cruzeiro. The Fox lost 2-1 at home to Palmeiras in the previous round and now needs a victory to qualify for the Copa Liber𓃲tadores. The Miners must beat Juventude while hoping that Bahia draws with Atlético Goianiense, a relegated team.

The Miners haven't won in four games, so I'm backing Juventude to win.
