Lanus vs Atletico Mineiro Prediction and Betting Tips | November 22nd 2025

The Estadio Defensores del Chaco play host to the 2025 Copa Sudamericana final as Lanus and Atletico Mineiro go head-to-head for glory on Saturday. This will be the first meeting between the two sides since the Brazilian outfit secured a 4-3 victory in the CONMEBOL Recopa final back in 2014 and another action-packed contest is on the cards this weekend.

Lanus enjoyed a dominant run in the Copa Sudamericana group stages, as they picked up three wins and three draws from their six matches to finish four points clear at the top of Group G.

Mauricio Pellegrino’s men brushed aside Central Cordoba and Fluminense in the knockout stages to set up a thrilling clash with Universidad de Chile in the semi-finals, where they secured a 3-2 aggregate victory.

Lanus head into Saturday’s clash fresh off the back of a 3-1 victory over Atletico Tucuman in the final game of the Argentine Liga Profesional Clausura regular season, clinching second in the table to book their spot in the playoffs.

Atletico Mineiro, meanwhile, picked up two wins and three draws in the six Sudamericana group-stage games to collect nine points and finish second in Group H, before seeing off Colombian outfit Atlético Bucaramanga on penalties in the playoffs.

Jorge Sampaoli’s men then knocked out Godoy Cruz and Bolivar en route to the semi-finals, where they secured a thrilling 4-2 aggregate victory over Independiente Del Valle to reach their first-ever Sudamericana final.

Back home, Mineiro are currently languishing in 11th place in the Brasileiro Serie A standings, and victory on Saturday could mark the starting point of a much-needed turnaround domestically.
