America Mineiro will square off against Sao Paulo at the Estadio Raimundo Sampaio in the second leg of the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals on Thursday.

The first leg ended in a 1-0 win for Sao Paulo last month, but Mineiro will fancy their chances of overcoming it. The hosts have recorded three wins in a row and are coming off a 1-0 win over Santos in the Brazilian Serie A. Sao Paulo, meanwhile, rode on goals from Rodrigo Nestor, Igor Vinicius and Jonathan Calleri to see off Red Bull Bragantino 3-0 in the league.

Neither team has won the cup competition, with Sao Paulo making the final in 2000.
