San Lorenzo vs Atletico Mineiro Match Analysis & Prediction
14/08/2024 3:30 am
San Lorenzo and Atletico Mineiro will meet in the first leg of their Copa Libertadores round-of-16 tie on Wednesday.
Currently 24th in the Primera Division after playing nine matches, San Lorenzo will return to Copa Libertadores action after progressing to the knockout stages as Group F runners-up.
Leandro Romagnoli’s side are in poor form heading into this contest, having failed to win any of their last four matches across all competitions.
Since beating Gimnasia on July 23, San Lorenzo have drawn successive matches with Newell’s Old Boys and Independiente in the league, before suffering back-to-back defeats – a 3-1 loss to Velez Sarsfield in the Copa Argentina round of 16 and a 1-0 defeat to Atletico Tucuman in their most recent league game.
In the current Copa Libertadores campaign, San Lorenzo are unbeaten at home, securing two wins and a draw in three matches, and they will hope to maintain this record in the round of 16.
Meanwhile, Group G winners Atletico Mineiro enter this contest looking to build on their solid group-stage form, where they won five and lost just one of their six matches.
Atletico Mineiro, who lifted the trophy once in their history in 2013 – year before the hosts’ triumph – will be aiming to go all the way again.
Galo head into the contest on a two-game unbeaten run – a 3-0 victory over CRB in the second leg of their Copa do Brasil round-of-16 tie followed a goalless draw with Cruzeiro in their most recent league match.
With two wins and a defeat in their three away matches during the Copa Libertadores group stage, Atletico Mineiro will be looking to replicate one of those victories on Wednesday.
However, they are without a win in their last five away matches across all competitions, recording three draws and two losses since a 1-0 victory over Internacional on June 27 in the Brasileiro Serie A.
