América-MG vs Grêmio Prediction: Can Grêmio finally win away?

This Série A match puts last-placed América-MG up against sixth-placed Grêmio. On the surface, it might seem that the Gaúchos are the favorites against the team with the lowest score in the Brasileirão, but the truth is that they're not. Grêmio hasn't won away from home in four months and underperforms when it leaves the Arena do Grêmio. América is practically doomed to relegation to the Série B, but in every match, the team is fighting hard.

América-MG

Once again, the Mineiros showed that in terms of dignity and fighting spirit, they are not the worst team in the league. In their last match, they lost 3-2 at fifth-placed Athletico-PR, but they never gave up trying to get a point. In Round 28, América failed to win away to Corinthians, conceding the equalizer in the 99th minute. At 14 points off 16th place, it's virtually impossible for the Rabbit to escape relegation. It's up to the team to fight with dignity once again and give the fans a little joy.

Grêmio

The Immortal Tricolor pulled off a surprise in the last round by beating Tite's Flamengo 3-2 at home. If the game had been played a few weeks earlier, it might not have been a surprise, but at this point, few would have expected Flamengo to lose. Grêmio was on a run of three straight defeats, and Flamengo had won both games with Tite in charge. In addition, the Cariocas had won all three matches against the Gaúchos this season, and Grêmio striker Luis Suárez was suspended. A win against América away from home would be an excellent tonic for the final part of the season to overcome the trauma of away matches definitively.

Expert Betting Tips

As I said earlier, Grêmio is not the favorite in this game, given the struggles of Renato Portaluppi's team on the road. The Gaúchos' last away win was in June in Salvador da Bahia. Still, I think any team can win. My bet is for both teams to score, as both sides concede many goals.
