Serie A encounter on April 13, 2025, both squads have been navigating a rollercoaster of a season.
Atlético Mineiro has been juggling form, while
Vitoria BA is striving to climb the standings.
Key Players and Absences
Atlético Mineiro's roster boasts a formidable lineup. Hulk remains a force up front, his record speaks for itself. Gustavo Scarpa, with his creative playmaking, complements Hulk’s attacking prowess. Junior Alonso anchors the defense, his leadership crucial. Emerson, versatile and reliable, plays a pivotal role on the flanks. Notably absent are Renzo Saravia, sidelined with an injury, and the promising Fausto Vera, unavailable for this fixture.
Vitoria BA's squad is not without its own stars. Osvaldo, with his sharp reflexes, stands guard between the posts. Willian, a midfield engine, orchestrates the play. Bruno Uvini’s defensive acumen is invaluable, while Gustavo Mosquito adds flair in attack. The team misses Leo Santos, nursing a long-term injury, and the dynamic Claudinho, who’s out due to personal reasons.
