Cruzeiro are massive favorites because Sao Paulo is missing their top attackers, but this ignores a couple of huge factors pointing the other way. The seventeen-day break for the home side is far more likely to cause rust than to help them. Combine that with a stubborn visiting side that excels defensively on the road, and the setup heavily favors the visitors holding their ground. They have the defensive structure to frustrate a team that historically struggles when expected to dominate.
Cruzeiro comes into this match holding a tremendous structural advantage over a completely depleted Sao Paulo side. The visitors are dealing with a severe injury crisis that has stripped them of seven key players, including their starting goalkeeper and their top attacking duo. Meanwhile, the hosts are fully rested after a seventeen-day break and are primed to dominate the tempo.
