Fresh off the back of reaching the fourth round of the Copa do Brasil, Juventude play host to Atletico Mineiro in round 17 of the Brasileiro Serie A on Tuesday.
Gabriel Milito's men have won each of their previous meetings with the Verdao since August 2021 and will journey to the Estadio Alfredo Jaconi looking to extend this dominant run.
We say: Juventude 1-1 Atletico Mineiro
Off the back of a hard-fought win over Sao Paulo, Atletico Mineiro will head into Tuesday's game with confidence as they look to extend their dominance over Juvnetude. However, Machado's men have been near impenetrable at home this season and we predict they will do just enough to force a share of the spoils.

Seeking to pick up back-to-back Serie A home wins for the first time this season, Corinthians play host to Criciuma at the Neo Quimica Arena on Tuesday.
The visitors will head into the game looking to get one over the Time do Povo, having failed to win any of the previous six meetings between the sides since August 2008.
We say: Corinthians 2-1 Criciuma
Corinthians have struggled for results in recent weeks and find themselves scrambling for points at the wrong end of the table. However, Laruccia's men have enjoyed the better of this fixture and we fancy them to see off Criciuma who have lost four of their last five away matches across all competitions since April.
