Gallo is second in Group A with 11 points, while Gato Dumato, who has been eliminated, is third in Group C with 7 points.
According to the rules of this year’s state championship, in addition to the leaders of each group, only the second-place team with the best performance can advance to the semifinals of the championship.
Atletico are still without a head coach, having sacked Jorge Sampaoli following Brazil’s 3-3 draw with Remo.
Gallo will therefore be led by the club’s permanent assistant Lucas Goncalves, who has opted to bring in Natanaar, Vitor Hugo, Scarpa and Dudu in place of Preciado, Alonso, Cuello and Reinier respectively.
