Serie A Brazil 33rd matchday, Thursday, 14/11/2024 at 00:00 CEST
Actually, the circumstances almost force me to type my Flamengo Atletico MG prediction into the Betano app. As you will soon find out, this match is currently dominated by the bookmaker with a valid German license.
Consequently, you can place a Flamengo Atletico MG tip for the Brazilian Serie A game between these two heavyweights without hesitation, even within Germany. But make sure you select at least 2.5 goals.
Flamengo and Atlético Mineiro face each other again this week, and under exciting circumstances.
The bookmakers were in full swing over the weekend, and Betano Sportwetten in particular is adding extra incentive to the game – after all, Betano not only sponsors the Copa do Brasil, which was just won by Flamengo, but also the finalists Atlético MG as a jersey sponsor.
Unfortunately, the “Alvinegro” had little to celebrate at the weekend. After losing 1-3 in the first leg against the Rio team, they also lost the second leg 0-1.
A bitter setback for Atlético, who are still searching for their form and have now gone five competitive games without a win.
They face their next test in the Serie A against Flamengo on Thursday – another chance, but also a big challenge.
Can they finally beat the “Rubinrots” and get some revenge for the two defeats in the cup final?
Flamengo, on the other hand, have been riding a wave of success since they were unexpectedly knocked out of the Copa Libertadores by Peñarol at the end of September.
But looking back, the unexpected elimination could have been a hidden blessing. Since then, Flamengo seems to have been able to fully focus on domestic tasks, which can be felt in both the league and the cup.
Since then, the club from Rio has only suffered one defeat in a total of seven wins and three draws. The run of success was recently crowned by the aforementioned cup victory over Atlético MG – and in convincing fashion.
Flamengo had already set the course for this triumph in the first leg, and the exciting second leg could have ended with more than a 1-0 victory. In any case, there were plenty of chances, and Flamengo showed enormous offensive potential with Gabriel Barbosa as the sole striker!
So don’t be fooled by the modest scoreline. Nobody would have complained about a 2-2 draw!
The league is also hotting up for both teams, with Flamengo aiming to win the Copa Libertadores, while Atlético MG are hoping to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana.
Both teams are fighting for important points and will not give away any gifts. Flamengo has a clear run at the legendary Maracanã and wants to continue this series to secure a place in the top third.
Atlético MG, on the other hand, urgently needs a win to avoid falling into the bottom half of the table. This difference in the form of both teams suggests that this game could be a goal-fest.
So, for me, betting on over 2.5 goals, which is currently offered at odds of around 2.20 in practically every sports betting app, is interesting here.
In light of the last few encounters, in which four of the last five duels ended with over 2.5 goals, this seems to be an extremely attractive option.
Flamengo have already shown in both final duels how dominant they can currently play. They are expected to have the upper hand this time as well.
Both teams are offensive, and with the return of key players, Flamengo look well placed to make another statement. Especially since Hulk suffered an injury in the final and will now have to take a break.
The Flamengo Atlético MG odds therefore suggest that the hosts are favored with values of 1.80 on average – and with good reason!
Conclusion: My Flamengo Atletico MG prediction in this case is clearly in favor of an exciting game, with the over 2.5-goal bet offering clear value here.
Even though a win for the hosts is entirely possible, in my opinion the home win rate is set a little too low to justify real risk.
In my opinion, betting on the ruby reds once again would be a bit too optimistic here. But if you look at the offensive style of both teams, there is no way around betting on many goals.
My tip: Over 2.5 goals
