Atletico GO vs. Santos (Saturday, 8.00pm)
Atletico Goianiense will play host to Santos on Saturday, in a clash between sides battling to climb further from the bottom four of the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A table.
After an upturn in form, the visitors have risen to 13th spot, but they sit just one point ahead of the hosts, who have gone the opposite way and now sit 16th after three straight defeats.
We say: Atletico Goianiense 0-2 Santos
Given the contrasting form of the two sides, we expect Santos to leave with all three points on Saturday.
The visitors have gained momentum in recent outings, while their hosts have gone the opposite way, and we see those trends continuing with an away victory.

America Mineiro vs. Gremio (Saturday, 9.30pm)
Gremio have an opportunity to stop a six-game losing streak away from home and with a victory on Saturday from Estadio Raimundo Sampaio when they face America Mineiro in match #31 for them in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A.
Immortal Tricolor are seven points behind Bahia and a place in the top flight next year, while Mineiro outlasted a resilient Sport Recife team with a 3-2 victory.
We say: America Mineiro 1-0 Gremio
America have had a lot more structure to their game in recent weeks, and they have been able to hang around in plenty of matches thanks to their patience and waiting for their opponents to make a move.
Gremio cannot seem to play strong for a long stretch while also being incredibly poor away from home so expect to see them extend their losing run on the road to seven games this weekend.

Internacional vs. Athletico PR (Saturday, 10.00pm)
Athletico Paranaense have an opportunity to catch Internacional in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A table when they head to Estadio Jose Pinheiro Borda to face them on Saturday.
Colorado came up empty-handed on Wednesday due to a late own goal, falling 2-1 to Juventude, while El Paranaense moved to within three points of them with a 2-1 win over Ceara.
We say: Internacional 2-2 Athletico Paranaense
El Paranaense have never beaten Internacional away from home, but this team have worked very hard to get where they are, and at the moment they are finishing their chances.
Internacional have not lost a home fixture since July 7, and they have been clinical in front of goal at home, so expect to see a hard-fought match for both of these sides who have a lot of determination in them to come back in the late stages to earn results.

Bragantino vs. Fortaleza (Saturday, 10.00pm)
Two teams fighting for a spot in the 2022 Copa Libertadores group stage will face each other on Saturday as Bragantino play host to Fortaleza from Estadio Nabi Abi Chedid.
Braga were shut out for a third consecutive Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A fixture this week when they fell 2-0 to Santos, while Leo do Pici dropped two points, conceding a goal in injury time in a 1-1 draw with Sao Paulo.
We say: Bragantino 2-1 Fortaleza
Fortaleza have two more victories this year than Braga, and that is the only thing keeping them in fourth place in the table.
Bragantino should be focused and ready to give their best against a side that have been one of the surprises in this domestic campaign, but Braga seem to be dialled in when facing the top teams in Serie A.

Corinthians vs. Cuiaba (Sunday, 12.00am)
Corinthians return home on Saturday looking to extend their unbeaten run at Corinthians Arena to nine straight games in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A when they host Cuiaba.
Timao maintained their sixth-place standing despite losing 3-0 on Wednesday to Atletico Mineiro, while Dourado have gone scoreless in back-to-back league fixtures after dropping a 1-0 decision to Ceara last weekend.
We say: Corinthians 1-1 Cuiaba
It has been a while since Corinthians have conceded in front of their home fans, but there are a couple of Cuiaba loanees who should have some extra motivation for this one to prove that they deserve more playing time with Timao when they return.
Corinthians have done just enough to win at home, with a single goal in three straight fixtures, but Cuiaba are a side who are positionally sound at the back and rarely allow a lot of good chances, so we expect that this contest will be a stalemate.
