We said: Atletico Goianiense 0-2 Nacional
A one-goal deficit is far from impossible, and nobody knows that better than Luis Suarez, who has a knack for scoring big goals in critical matches as he did at the Camp Nou when his opener helped spur his former club Barcelona onto a 6-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in one of the greatest comeback stories in Champions League history.
As sharp as Goianiense have been at the Sudamericana, they have been all over the place with their play domestically, and we anticipate their lack of experience in these types of matches could get the better of them in this one.
