This Serie B fixture is a game where América Mineiro need points to escape 19th place, while Cuiabá sit 13th and still want to climb further away from the lower zone. The two sides met not long ago, with América Mineiro having just beaten Operário PR 1-0 at home in Serie B on 17 Oct., while Cuiabá had just lost 0-1 away to Londrina in Serie B on 21 Oct., a match in which their attack still wasn't working. América Mineiro play cautiously in the closing stretch of the season, with a stubborn defence but an attack that doesn't produce many goals, while Cuiabá alternate narrow wins and defeats, with attacking moments but finishing that isn't sharp. Both teams therefore arrive in similar condition, focused more on not conceding first than on opening up and attacking each other. This game is likely to be one where the hosts have to open up to find goals against a Cuiabá side expected to sit back and wait for counter-attacking chances, especially in the second half, when América Mineiro tend to concede more than in the first. If the hosts control the tempo and don't leave gaps for Cuiabá to break quickly, the game looks likely to end tightly and the hosts have a chance to take points.
