Goias

DWWDDL

Since suffering a loss in their previous game against Internacional in Serie A competition, Goias and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

In that game, Goias managed 53% possession and 6 attempts on goal with 2 of them on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Goias was Da Silva (41'). Internacional got 16 shots at goal with 8 of them on target. Edenílson (8') and Alan Patrick (47') scored for Internacional.

Over the course of their last 6 clashes, Goias have bagged the sum of 7 goals. Goias have also scored on each one of those occasions. Over that period, their defenders have had 6 goals scored by their opponents. It will be interesting to see if that trend can be continued on here.

Their previous form shows that Goias:

• have not emerged victorious against Corinthians when having played them away from home in the previous 4 matches in the league. They really have not been travelling well at all.
• are unbeaten in their last 2 league matches away from home.

📋 Team News: Corinthians

Looking at personnel, there is just one fitness concern for the Corinthians boss Vítor Pereira to contend with due to a largely intact squad. Paulinho (Ruptured knee ligament) is sidelined.

It’s our opinion that Timão will possibly kick off with a 4-2-3-1 formation for this one, utilising Cassio, Gustavo Mantuan, Gil, Raul Gustavo, Lucas Piton, Du Queiroz, Víctor Cantillo, Adson, Giuliano, Willian and Roger Guedes.

📋 Team News: Goias

Owing to a fully injury-free group to choose from, the Goias boss Jair Ventura has no fitness worries to report coming into this clash.

We are inclined to think that Verdão will likely play in a 4-4-2 lineup using Tadeu, Maguinho, Da Silva, Yan Souto, Danilo Barcelos, Diego, Elvis, Caio Vinicius, Fellipe Bastos, Pedro Raul and V. Santos Silva.

💭 Prediction

We feel that in this game, Corinthians will, in all likelihood, dominate on the ball and be rewarded with decent chances.

At the same time, Goias could well struggle to score a goal of their own although we do think it’s probable that they will be scoring as well.

Our selection here is for a 3-1 winning margin for Corinthians when the full-time whistle blows.
