Atletico Mineiro host Gremio in a Serie A fixture that carries real meaning for both clubs, with neither side in a position to treat league points as expendable.
Eduardo Dominguez's Atletico side sit 11th in the table and will be looking to build on a run of form that has included wins over Red Bull Bragantino and Palmeiras in their last five outings. The Belo Horizonte club have also been active off the pitch, with former Manchester United midfielder Fred agreeing a permanent return to his boyhood club from Fenerbahce.
Gremio arrive in 14th place under Luis Castro, three positions below their hosts and in need of points to avoid being dragged deeper into relegation trouble. Their most recent Serie A result was an encouraging 2-1 win over Sao Paulo, though inconsistency across competitions has been a recurring theme for the Porto Alegre side.
Castro's squad has been juggling league and cup commitments, and the demands of that schedule have shown in their results. A trip to face Atletico is a stern examination of where Gremio genuinely stand at this stage of the campaign.
For Atletico, home advantage and the momentum of recent results make this a fixture they will approach with confidence. Dominguez will want his side to press that advantage and extend the gap between themselves and the bottom half.
