Gameday in Belo Horizonte for the round 2 of the group D between Atletico MG & America MG.

Atletico MG will be without Dodo who is injured.

On their side America MG is without important striker Wellington Paulista, Aloisio who isn't fit yet & Matheus Cavichioli.

On their first game Atletico MG made a strong win on the road against Tolima 0-2 it was a 50/50 game but it was a difficult game on the road so taking 3 points was very important and a great boost of confidence to start their season.

On their first Serie A game they made a strong win over Inter 2-0 and they made some rotations to get players at 100% for this game like Nacho who didn't play at all, Zaracho who played 30' etc.

America MG on their side lost against Del Valle 0-2, they were dominating a bit on the stats but it's because Del Valle scored an early goal and then they just tried to keep the score. In their start of Serie A they faced the new promoted team of Avai and lost 1-0 they were dominated, the red card didn't help but they showed a lot of weakness offensively.

The important fact is that America MG just changed their coach today, he was already coach of America last season but then he paid to leave the team to go to Gremio and try to not be relegated but he didn't reach the goal of Gremio. He knows the team but the timing of changing the coach is really badly especially before such a big game.

I have to remind that in addition of being a Copa Libertadores game, it's also a classico so the motivation of Atletico MG will be big at home in front of their fans.

America is in one of his worst season of the last years, being qualified for the Copa Libertadores was good but it will put them in big trouble because they couldn't prepare well the season.

For this season Atletico MG is coached by Antonio Mohamed he is already doing a great job with them, they won the state championship with very good results and performances on the field.

A Classico is always different but I really can't see how Atletico will not win this game with their qualities. As Atletico MG wants to win most of title this season, they really have to reach the qualification early so they will be able to make some rest and will be less under pressure during the season.

I expect them to go with Everson, Mariano, Godin, Junior Alonso, Arana, Allan, Jair, Nacho, Zaracho, Vargas & Hulk.

I expect 2-0 or 3-0.

解放者杯 D 组第 2 轮比赛，在米内罗竞技和米内罗美洲之间进行。

米内罗竞技将缺少受伤的多多。

米内罗美洲方面缺少重要的前锋惠灵顿保利斯塔，还在恢复的阿洛伊西奥和马修斯卡维奇奥利。

在他们的第一场比赛中，米内罗竞技在客场以 0-2 大胜托利马，这是一场 五五开 的比赛，也是一场艰难的比赛，因此拿下 3 分非常重要，极大地增强了球队的信心。

在他们的第一场联赛比赛中，他们以 2-0 大胜巴西国际，他们进行了一些轮换以让球员在这场比赛中发挥 100%，比如根本没有上场的纳乔、打了 30 分钟的萨拉乔等。

米内罗美洲以 0-2 输给了 Del Valle，他们在数据上占据了一些优势，但这是因为 Del Valle 早早打入一球，然后他们只是试图保持比分。

联赛开局他们面对升班马阿瓦伊，0-1输球，红牌没有帮助，他们在进攻端表现出很多弱点。

重要的事实是，米内罗美洲今天刚换了教练，上赛季他已经是美洲队的教练，但后来他花钱离开球队去格雷米奥，试图保级，但他没有达到格雷米奥的目标。他了解这支球队，但更换教练的时机真的很糟糕，尤其是在如此重要的比赛之前。

我必须提醒，除了作为南美解放者杯比赛之外，这也是一场经典比赛，所以米内罗竞技在他们的球迷面前将有巨大的动力。

米内罗美洲正处于他过去几年中最糟糕的时刻之一，获得南美解放者杯的参赛资格很好，但这会给他们带来很大的麻烦，因为他们无法做好本赛季的准备。

本赛季米内罗竞技由安东尼奥·穆罕默德执教，他已经与他们一起做得很好，他们以非常好的成绩和场上表现赢得了州冠军。

我真的无法想象米内罗竞技无法赢得这场比赛。由于他们希望在本赛季赢得大部分冠军，他们确实必须尽早获得资格，这样他们才能得到一些轮换，并且在赛季中的压力会更小。

他们有埃弗森、马里亚诺、戈丁、小阿隆索、阿拉纳、艾伦、贾尔、纳乔、萨拉乔、巴尔加斯和胡尔克这些优秀的球员。

预测米内罗竞技胜。
