• Hot Trendy News
Belo Horizonte, Brazil — Matchday 10 of the 2025 Brasileirão brings a marquee showdown at Arena MRV as Atlético Mineiro welcome Corinthians in a clash that could reshape the early-season title picture. Kick-off is set for Saturday, 24 May at 21:00 BRT (00:00 UTC on 25 May), with live coverage on ESPN and Star+ in Brazil.
Current form and standings
• Atlético Mineiro (4W-3D-2L, 15 pts) sit fifth, five points off leaders Palmeiras after a 1-0 away win at Bahia. New head coach Gabriel Milito has tightened the back line, conceding just three goals in the last five league outings.
• Corinthians (3W-2D-4L, 11 pts) are 12th but unbeaten in three after edging Grêmio 2-1 at Neo Química Arena. António Oliveira’s counter-punching setup is beginning to click, with Yuri Alberto scoring in back-to-back games.
Key storylines
1. Hulk vs Cacá: Galo’s talisman already has six league goals and will test a Timão defence rebuilt around 20-year-old centre-back Cacá, a breakout star this season.
2. Battle on the flanks: Atlético’s speedy wingers Paulinho and Pedrinho face Corinthians’ emerging full-back duo of Wesley and Matheus Bidu—whoever wins width could dominate possession in Arena MRV’s tight dimensions.
3. Midfield chess: Battaglia and Zaracho’s double pivot meets Maycon and Raniele; expect aggressive pressing and rapid transitions, especially with VAR-monitored tackling thresholds this season.
Probable line-ups
Atlético Mineiro (4-2-3-1): Everson; Saravia, Bruno Fuchs, Rémulo, Guilherme Arana; Battaglia, Zaracho; Pedrinho, Igor Gomes, Paulinho; Hulk.
Corinthians (4-3-3): Cássio; Wesley, Cacá, Félix Torres, Bidu; Maycon, Raniele, Rodrigo Garro; Ángel Romero, Yuri Alberto, Pedro Henrique.
Injury report
• Atlético: Alan Franco (knee) and Otávio (thigh) remain out.
• Corinthians: Ruan Oliveira (ACL) is the lone absentee; Fagner returns from suspension.
Head-to-head trends
• Galo are unbeaten in seven home league meetings with Timão since 2016.
• Last season’s encounter in Belo Horizonte ended 3-0 to Atlético, with Hulk netting a brace.
Tactics snapshot
Milito’s 4-2-3-1 morphs into a 3-2-5 in possession, pushing Arana high and wide to overload the left-half space. Corinthians prefer a low-to-mid block (average 43 % possession), springing quick vertical balls to Romero and Alberto. Expect set-pieces to be decisive: Atlético lead Serie A in xG from dead-ball situations (3.2) while Corinthians have conceded four of their 12 goals against from corners.
Match odds (Brazilian books)
Atlético Mineiro 1.70 | Draw 3.40 | Corinthians 5.00 — reflecting Galo’s formidable home record and superior form.
How to watch and stream

Prediction
With momentum, altitude, and Hulk firing, Atlético Mineiro are tipped to edge a tight contest 2-1, though Corinthians’ revitalised attack could make it nervy. Whichever side dictates the pressing triggers in midfield will likely secure the points—and potentially ignite a run toward the top four.
