Command Analysis

Atletico MG

Current form
Atletico Mineiro was not among the main contenders for the trophy before the start of the tournament and reached the final quite sensationally. Having won their group very easily, the "roosters" dealt with Argentina San Lorenzo in the 1/8 finals with some difficulty, and also with a minimal advantage in the quarterfinals they were stronger than Fluminense. In the confrontation with River Plate in the semifinals, Gabriel Milito team was not considered the favorite, but they dealt with the "millionaires" very easily and deprived them of a home final.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kadu and Saracho are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Atletico Mineiro have not won in their last 10 matches – six defeats and four draws

Botafogo RJ

Current form
"Botafogo", unlike its opponent today, was considered a contender for the trophy before the start of the Copa Libertadores and has justified this status so far, having managed to get to the final. In its group, the "victors" were unable to win and finished second, having received a very serious opponent in the 1/8 finals in the person of "Palmeiras". It was very difficult to cope with the "white-greens", but in the quarterfinals with "Sao Paulo" it was even more difficult and only in the penalty shootout did Artur Jorge team prove stronger. The semifinals were very simple, where "Penarol" did not offer any resistance.
Disqualifications and injuries
Rafael, Mateus and Pablo are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- Botafogo have not lost in their last five matches – two wins and three draws
- Botafogo have not lost to Atletico Mineiro in their last two matches - a win and a draw

1.75Tip and bets
Botafogo approaches the final as favourites – the “victors” are in excellent shape and have a significant advantage in the selection of players over their opponents. Atletico Mineiro, after their success in the first match of the semi-final against River Plate, which happened back in mid-October, has not won again and looks frankly weak in the game, it makes sense to give preference to the favourite in such a situation.
We believe that the favorite will not make a mistake. The forecast is a victory for Botafogo . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.95
Bet on total
Botafogo are in excellent form and a few days ago they had a powerful match against Palmeiras in the championship, scoring three goals against their main rival in the fight for the championship title. It is obvious that it will be almost impossible for Atletico Mineiro defense to hold back the favorites who have gained such momentum, but at the same time the "roosters" have their own trump cards in attack and are capable of responding with one goal.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 2.19
Bet on corners
Botafogo are the favourites and will probably spend most of the match attacking – the “victors” should win confidently on corners.
