Atletico GO preview: Looking for a way out of the relegation zone
With just two wins in 14 games in the league so far, Atletico Goianiense sit in the relegation zone at the moment, although they are just one point behind the first team outside of it. Still, since they've been without a win in their last five games in a row in Serie A, Atletico GO really need to find their best form sooner rather than later.
Meanwhile, Atletico GO are missing Angelo Araos, Campanharo, Yony Gonzalez, Gustavo Campanharo, Alix, and Pedro Henrique through injuries.
Predicted lineup: Ronaldo (GK), Maguinho, Martins, Vinicius, Romao, Kal, Roni, Shaylon, Baralhas, Fernando & Rodriguez

Athletico PR preview: Trying to find their best form
After a good start of the season, Athletico Paranaense have struggled to maintain their form recently and have only managed to win once in their last six games in Serie A. Overall, they are sixth in the standings with 22 points from 14 games and not too far behind teams near the top of the table.
When it comes to team news, Althetico PR will have to rely on their third-choice goalie since Linck is suspended and Bento Krepski is on international duty, along with Agustin Canobbio. Also missing are Tomas Cuello, Nikao, Gonzalo Mastriani, and Filipinho, who are injured at the moment.
Predicted lineup: Myceal (GK), Godoy, Rocha, Heleno, Esquivel, Fernandinho, Gabriel, Erick, Cardoso, Pablo & Julimar

Player to watch: Pablo
With Athletico PR's top scorer in the league so far Gonzalo Mastriani unfit, our player to watch is the other forward from the team, Pablo, who has notched a couple of goals in Serie A so far.
Will Pablo be the first scorer?
While Pablo only has two goals in Serie A so far, both of them were the first goals of the respective matches. Can the experienced striker score the first goal on Sunday too?
