Sao Paulo are winless in their last five; Atletico-MG are unbeaten in their last five. The visitors bring the sharper form into this Brasileirão Série A tie.
J. Calleri has been Sao Paulo's spearhead, with 7 goals and 1 assists in 20 appearances, averaging 0.75 shots on target per game. T. Cuello has been Atletico-MG's main threat, with 4 goals and 1 assists in 20 appearances, averaging 0.55 shots on target per game.
One thing to keep in mind about Sao Paulo. They're scoring 1.1 goals per game but the quality of chances they create only works out at 0.9. Scoring that much more than the chances suggest (+0.3), that kind of hot finishing usually cools off, so their results may be flattering their actual play. Atletico-MG could be in for a similar cool-off. 1.5 goals a game against chance quality worth only 1.2. Hot finishing has been covering for the fact they aren't creating that much.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
Sao Paulo create chances worth 0.9 a game (and give up chances worth 1.8), leaving them -0.9 a game on the balance. Atletico-MG create 1.2 (giving up 1.5) for a balance of -0.3. On the quality of chances, Atletico-MG look the stronger side. they create more and give up less. Sao Paulo are scoring 1.1 goals a game off chances worth just 0.9. That's +0.3 more than the chances suggest: finishing hot. History says this kind of run usually cools off. Atletico-MG are also scoring more than their chances suggest (1.5 goals vs chance quality of 1.2). Both runs could cool off at once.
Sao Paulo average 1.1 goals per game and Atletico-MG manage 1.5. Combined that's just 2.6. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game.
