Nautico x Cruzeiro
Two days ago i predicted the defat of Nautico in front of the Avai. It was a correct decision and the team lost 2-0 showing a very bad football and no spirit at all. They have accumulated 5 games without a win , losing 4 in a row and scoring only 2 goals in that period. On the pitch they look like a zombie team right now and the need for sure some changes and a rest.
Today they are going to miss the right back Bryan Mascarenhas (17/1 D) , key piece in defense who played almost all minutes this season.
Team Cruzeiro is big. They have for sure one of the strongest squads on this league but the results are not good. After 9 games without a win the coach was sacked and Vanderlei Luxemburgo took the reins.
Vanderlei is a well respected manager in Brazil and the reputation of the ex-Real Madrid manager talks by himself.
Since his arrival, Cruzeiro was able to win the first game in months and showed a very good style of play .They sit outside relegation zone and are unbeaten for 5 games , im quite sure they won´t lose today vs this struggling Nautico.
