Football Bet of the Day: Roosters won't have anything to crow about in Santos

Santos v Atletico MG
Sunday 20:00 (Live on BT Sport 3)

Just a single goal in Belgium earlier today. It went the way of our hosts, Zulte-Waregem, with whom we now hope not to be guests again any time soon.

Our week finishes in Brazil, where sixth-placed Santos welcome second-placed Atletico MG to the Urbano Caldeira (or Urban Boiler to English speakers) for one of tonight's Campeonato matches.

Since Dorival Junior took charge of the hosts towards the beginning of last season, their record on home turf is a mighty impressive W19-D2-L1. Against teams from the top half of the table, the Fish are W8-D1-L0 and we think it's much more likely that Atletico MG stink the place out this evening.

Marcelo Oliveira's visitors are in decent form - which partly explains the nice win price on Santos - but, in the longer term, they have a terrible record from similar fixtures. Going back to the second half of the 2013 campaign, the Roosters are W3-D1-L10 visiting teams that either finished in the top six or are sitting pretty there now.
