Competition: Brazil Serie A
Market: Internacional win
Odds: 7/10 @ 888sport
Looking to extend on their hometown purple patch in midweek, Internacional will welcome Atletico GO to the Estádio Beira-Rio in the early hours of Tuesday.
Starting with the hosts, putting in what was a rampant display while on Copa Sudamericana duties last week, Internacional should be smelling another chance here. Eventually picking up a thumping 5-1 win against Ecuadorian outfit Nueve de Octubre, Head Coach Mano Menezes now has his sights set on breaking into Serie A’s top-six. Enjoying an extended 11-match unbeaten run across all formats, a run that stems all the way back to April 10th, the Reds have also gained a reputation for their continued success on home soil. Last seen at the Estádio Beira-Rio picking up back-to-back Copa Sudamericana victories by an aggregate score of 7-1, it should also be highlighted that Internacional have lost just a single showdown in front of their own supporters since November 21st.
As for the visitors, while Atletico GO might have been last seen on Copa Sudamericana action snatching a point away at Ecuadorian outfit LDU Quito, the Dragons have largely struggled with their consistency. Despite showing some recent improvements while on continental duties, the Goiás-based side are battling it out at the foot of the Serie A table. With many tipping Jorge de Amorim Campos’ side to be at the heart of a relegation scrap this season, Atletico have managed to win just one of their opening seven top-flight contests. With just six points to their name and making their midweek trip to the Estádio Beira-Rio sat down in 19th, they should face a stern test on Tuesday. Facing an Internacional side who have only continued to shine on home soil over recent months, we’re backing a home victory here.
