Atletico Mineiro host Chapecoense AF in a Serie A fixture that pits a side with renewed momentum against one fighting for its top-flight survival.
Eduardo Dominguez's side arrive into this match in improved shape. After back-to-back defeats to Santos and Sao Paulo earlier in September, Atletico have since beaten Fluminense 3-1 in the league and followed that with a 4-2 Copa Sudamericana win over Santos — a result that underlines their ability to perform when the pressure is on. They sit seventh in the Serie A table.
Chapecoense arrive in a far more precarious position. Lacerda's side are rooted to the foot of the division in 20th place, and their recent form offers little reassurance. A 1-2 loss to Internacional on September 12 continued a damaging run, and they have managed just two wins from their last five matches.
The visitors have shown they can produce results against established sides — a 1-0 win over Sao Paulo and a 1-2 victory at Corinthians demonstrate that — but their defensive record remains a concern, and they have conceded freely in recent weeks.
For Atletico, this is an opportunity to extend their recovery and put distance between themselves and the relegation zone. For Chapecoense, it is a chance to collect points against a side that has not been immune to inconsistency this season.
Three points for the home side would consolidate their position in the top half. For the visitors, any positive result would be a lifeline.
