Gamingtips Prediction – Santos 1:0 Atletico Mineiro
Santos have scored just three goals in their last five games while Atletico Mineiro have scored four in their last five. Atletico do have a slightly better goal difference than Santos so far this season and this match could go either way – we should expect a tight game with few goals based on the fact that both sides are struggling for goals in recent matches.
Home advantage could be the difference between these two teams.
