The situation of Athletico-PR is quite complicated within the competition, since you will need to win by three or more goals difference to reach the final of the competition. Acting at home, Athletico-PR will have to have the initiative of the party, so it will attack with everything and will look for offensive movements from the first minutes. We expect a very bold house team in this match. The coach must not have significant absences in this match.
Grêmio:
The away team comes to this second leg with an advantage of 2 goals, but suffered 0 goals at home in the first leg. This is a team little affected by the home factor, that is, it presents similar results at home and away, since in the last 30 matches it records 5 wins, 7 draws and 3 losses as a visitor, with 13 goals scored and 9 suffered; against 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in his stadium, with 27 goals scored and 16 suffered.

His defense has been very solid, since he only suffered goals in 1 of the last 5 matches, and his attack has scored regularly, since he scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition.

In 15 games, he suffered the first goal 6 times, but he got the comeback in 2. In the last 20 home games for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: he suffered 4 of his 11 goals between minutes (16′-30 ‘ ).
The Grêmio knows that they have a great advantage in their favor, so they must maintain their characteristics, that is, they will try to have possession of the ball in their favor. To be able to lose by a goal of difference, the Grêmio will have to be attentive, thus making a strong defensive marking, since the locals must attack enough. The coach cannot count on forward Everton, as he will serve a suspension.
