Tips and Prediction
Following the events of Thursday night, fallen giants Sao Paulo at least have a chance to go to the Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals despite only earning six points from as many games during a difficult period in the Campeonato Brasileiro.
In the first leg of their round-of-16 match against Universidad Catolica, Rogerio Ceni’s team quickly built a three-goal lead. Despite going down to eight men and surrendering twice after the break, they now hold a dominating 4-2 lead going into the home leg later this month.
Tricolor Paulista’s dreams of launching a sustained challenge for Brasileiro glory have already been dashed by inconsistent play; they now behind first-placed Palmeiras by a margin of 10 points, ten years after the club’s last significant national or continental prize.
Sao Paulo’s best chance of experiencing success this season appears to be in the cups as they advanced to the Copa do Brasil’s last eight after defeating the league leaders in the first leg match last month.
Contrarily, they have only secured one win from eight games entering into this weekend’s match against Goiania after a scoreless draw with lowly Juventude last time out in Serie A.
The Goias state side have a lot of work to do if they are to revive dreams of a quarterfinal position in South America’s second-tier club competition after falling to a 2-0 setback at Asuncion on Thursday. They are now winless in their previous three games.
Before being held to a Copa do Brasil draw by neighborhood rivals Goias, head coach Jorginho’s team had won three of their previous four league games. Since then, they have followed up last weekend’s 1-1 draw against Ceara with a loss on Thursday.
The long ago World Cup winner, who just recently made his way back to the bench after a year away from the team, is currently experiencing his first difficult time in charge since taking over for Umberto Louzer.
A return to winning ways would put Atletico back on course to improve upon their ninth-place result from the previous season as they now reside in a tightly packed lower section of the Serie A standings, only two points above the relegation zone but just four points behind the top six.
Conclusion
On the strength of a valiant cup effort in difficult conditions, Sao Paulo, which has yet to record an away league victory this season, can finally put an end to their winless streak. However, we predict a win for Sao Paulo here.
