Atletico Mineiro v Corinthians - Brasileirao 2022
Atletico Mineiro and Corinthians go head-to-head in the Brazilian Serie A on Saturday

Atletico Mineiro will entertain Corinthians at the Estádio Mineirão in the Brazilian Serie A on Saturday.

The hosts are winless in their last four league outings and were held to a 2-2 draw by local rivals America Mineiro last week. First-half goals from Matías Zaracho and Hulk gave them a comfortable two-goal lead, which was undone by Gonzalo Mastriani's second-half brace. Hulk was sent off in injury time and will be suspended for the match.

The visitors have struggled to get going this season and are in 16th place in the league table with just 12 points from 13 games. They suffered their second defeat in as many games last week, as RB Bragantino inflicted a 1-0 defeat at home.

Atletico Mineiro vs Corinthians Prediction

Galo will be without the services of their top-scorer, Hulk, for the match on account of suspension, which is expected to impact their attacking prowess in the match. Nonetheless, they are unbeaten at home in their last eight games and should be able to produce a strong display.

Timão have lost six of their seven away games in the Brazilian Serie A this season, failing to score in four games during that period. They have been second-best in their recent league meetings against the hosts, with just one win in seven games, suffering six defeats.

They have suffered four defeats in their last five meetings at Saturday's venue as well. Considering Atletico's home advantage and the visitors' poor goalscoring form, we expect Luiz Felipe Scolari's men to record a comfortable win.

Prediction: Atletico Mineiro 2-0 Corinthians
