Atlético has learned its group and format for the 2027 Campeonato Mineiro, with the Minas Gerais Football Federation announcing the changes during a Technical Council meeting. The club will be placed in Group A alongside Pouso Alegre, North, Tombense, Betim, and Villa Nova, with the most successful club Galo holding the top seed.
The new format divides the 12 teams into two groups of six, with clubs facing opponents from the other group in a round-robin style. The top four teams from each group will advance to the quarterfinals, where ties will be played over two legs, and the final will also be a two-legged match. The season is set to start on January 6 and conclude on March 7, with the FMF to release the detailed fixture list later.
