Atletico GO vs CSA Today’s Football Prediction
Campaigns: Atletico / GO is the 5th place with 26 points and has the same score as the 4th place but loses in the goal difference. The CSA is the vice-leader with 29 points, only one less than the Fortaleza leader. Confrontation of two teams that fight at the top.
Proposals: CSA is one of the most objective and balanced teams in the B series.
As they manage to create many chances through their quick offensive transition, they “know how to suffer” defensively and, as the numbers in the later rounds show (they do not score in three games), they have a solid defensive system.
I believe that the main asset of the Alagoan team are the tips Niltinho and Didira, which in addition to having the necessary skill in the one-on-one against the rival sides, do very well their respective defensive functions. It is a set very well armed by coach Marcelo Cabo.
The recent CSA retrospective away from Maceió is very good (he has not lost six matches):
Brazil of Pelotas 0x2 CSA
Black Bridge 1 × 1 CSA
Paysandu 0x0 CSA
Vila Nova 0x1 CSA
Londrina 1 × 2 CSA
Criciúma 1 × 3 CSA
In the last games I saw of Atletico (victory over Fortaleza and tie with Avaí), I could see that they improved a lot in defensive terms (it is the worst defense of the championship, but have not conceded goals for three games) and has a great option against – attack with the tips Kayser and André Luís.
What did not please me was to see the slowness when they had the possession; they seemed not to know what to do, only exchanging passes with no concrete purpose.
I believe that in the house they will have difficulties to propose the game before the CSA.
11 initials: Atletico / GO will not be able to count on midfielder João Paulo and with the steering wheel Pedro Bambu (captain and very important piece in the sector of midfield).
For their places enter John Paul and Romulus, respectively. The CSA will not have the midfielder Ferrugem and striker Walter. In their vacancies will enter Juan and German.
Likely Athletic / GO: Jefferson; Alisson, Lucas Rocha, Oliveira, Bruno Santos; Rômulo, Fernandes, João Paulo; André Luís, Junior Brandão, Renato Kayser.
Probable CSA: Lucas; Celsinho, Xandão, Leandro, Rafinha; Yuri, Juan, Daniel Costa; Niltinho, Didira and Alemão.

CSA has been doing good games away from home and I believe that in spite of the embezzlement of Rust in the middle they will be able to make another balanced match, betting on the fast transitions and not yielding spaces to the opponent. Atletico has good recent results inside the Olympic, however against teams that are in the Z-4.
The stop in this round is different, since they face the vice-leader and since they play in the condition of constituents, has the “obligation” to impose its game.
I do not think they will execute this proposal with mastery and I also think that the houses are not considering the strength that the CSA has when playing as a visitor.
Prediction Today: CSA wins or ties
Odds: 1.72
