After securing two accesses to the first division since the runway system was deployed and lowered after one season less, América-MG showed more maturity to face the 2018 season keeping the structure set up since 2016 under the command of coach Enderson Moreira.
Looking at the 45 points as goal, which is the estimated score to avoid the fall for Serie B, the team has already considered the first match of the tournament as a decision. At home, he defeated Sport, another team that struggles to remain in the elite division of the national football, by 3 to 0.
In their first away game, America-MG even managed to perform well within their limitations against Flamengo. However, in the Maracanã, lost by 2 to 0. Nothing that could be surprising. Rubro-negro contests a different track from the Rabbit’s in the tournament and can not be considered a direct rival.
The preparation of the team for the decisive match on Monday had good news throughout the week. The medical department released three players who were in injury treatment. The main name of this group is the goalkeeper João Ricardo, considered absolute holder of the Rabbit. Also they began to train normally the left-back Giovanni and the steering wheel David. All are available to Moreira to face Vitória.
The Bahian team did not have the same preparation time. His debut in the last 16 of the Brazilian Cup was scheduled for the night of Wednesday, April 25. The physical wasting of the Lion, however, was not two major. In a game played at a rather slow pace and with rare excitement, it was 0-0 with Corinthians.
Involved also in the dispute of the Northeast Cup, the Vitória looks for reinforcements. Without much choice, coach Wagner Mancini ruled out the possibility of promoting the cast relay. He said he believed that due to the big difference between holders and reserves the fall in income would be very large if he chose this strategy.
The situation is even more complicated if you take into account that André Lima, Bryan, Luan, Júnior Todinho, Cleiton Xavier and Rodrigo Andrade are delivered to the medical department and have no prediction about when they will be able to resume acting.
Better structured technically, with new options for Monday’s match and acting in their domains, America-MG should be considered the best guess for the match against Vitória.
