Corinthians

DWLWDW

Corinthians are hoping to win again after their last result, the 4-0 Copa do Brasil success over Santos.

Their most recent results really do illustrate the point that things are going according to plan in the Corinthians rearguard. Corinthians have given the opposition little, with the total number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their past six outings standing at 3. That kind of trend won’t necessarily follow through into this game, however.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Corinthians:

• have not lost a league tie with Santos in their previous 2 games.
• are undefeated in their previous 18 home league matches. What a fantastic run.

The numbers tell their own story, and Santos have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 8 goals overall. In defence, Santos seem to have a bit of a soft underbelly.

Pre-game facts show that Santos:

• are winless against Corinthians in away games against them for the last 10 matches in the league. A very poor set of away results, indeed.
• are unbeaten in their previous 3 league matches away from home.

🤜🤛 Head to head

A look at their most recent head to head meetings dating back to 13/06/2019 shows that Corinthians have won 1 of them & Santos 2, with the tally of draws being 3.

🗞️ Team News: Corinthians

Bruno Méndez (Unknown Injury) and Paulinho (Ruptured knee ligament) won’t be available for Corinthians gaffer Vítor Pereira.

It looks as if Timão could make use of the 4-2-3-1 formation featuring Cassio, Rafael Ramos, Robson Bambu, Raul Gustavo, Fabio Santos, Du Queiroz, Víctor Cantillo, Adson, Renato Augusto, Gustavo Mantuan and Junior Moraes.

ℹ️ Team News: Santos

Owing to a fully healthy group available to select from, the Santos manager Fabián Bustos has zero fitness worries whatsoever ahead of this match.

There’s a good chance that Peixe could decide to play in a 4-3-3 lineup with a starting lineup of John, Auro, Emiliano Velazquez, Eduardo Bauermann, Lucas Pires, Rodrigo Fernández, Guilherme Camacho, Angelo Borges, Leo Baptistao, Marcos Leonardo and Lucas Braga.

🧠 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Santos will need to apply a lot of pressure to put one past this Corinthians lineup who we think might well be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.

Therefore, we predict a very competitive game with a 1-0 win for Corinthians at the end of the 90 minutes.

We’re expecting it to be that close.
