- Atlético Paranaense vs Cruzeiro Predictions: Cruzeiro to Snatch a Point
Such is the tight nature of the current Brazilian Serie A rankings, the teams featured in our Atlético Paranaense vs Cruzeiro preview could conceivably swap positions in the table come the final whistle on Thursday, despite them occupying 14th and 7th place respectively. The Arena da Baixada stadium should be rocking for the visit of Cruzeiro, who have won just once on the road this season. Atl. PR supporters will be keen for their players to raise their game and improve their underwhelming points return in their home city.

Atlético Paranaense vs Cruzeiro Prediction and Betting Advice
Our Atlético Paranaense vs Cruzeiro picks are influenced by the fact that both our featured clubs are struggling for goals this season. Atl. PR’s leading scorer this season is defender Sidcley, who has plundered three goals from the back, while veteran midfielder Thiago Neves is Cruzeiro’s leading man with five goals so far. Those figures shine a light on two underperforming sets of attacking players. That tells us Thursday’s Brazilian Serie A game is likely to be a low scoring one and I think the sides will have to settle for a point each.
