Atletico Mineiro will host CRB at the Arena MRV on Wednesday in the second leg of their 2024 Copa do Brasil last-16 clash. The home side have performed well in the league of late and will be looking to carry that momentum onto the domestic cup this week.
They were knocked out at this stage of the competition last season, facing off against Corinthians and picking up a 2-0 home win in the first leg before a lackluster second-leg display saw them ultimately lose the tie on penalties.
CRB, meanwhile, have had mixed results in the Brazilian second-tier this season but will be looking to extend their cup run this week. They locked horns with Ceara in the previous round of the tournament, picking up a 2-0 aggregate with Joao Neto and Gege finding the back of the net for the Galo in the first and second leg respectively.
Trending
Atletico-MG and CRB played out a 2-2 draw in their first-leg clash last month with a quickfire double from Willian Formiga and Leo Pereira handing the second-tier side a two-goal lead before Atletico upped the ante and leveled the scores after the restart.
