Internacional come into this clash after a 1-0 Copa do Brasil win with the defeat of Maracanã in their last game.

Roger Machado's Internacional have slotted home a total of 8 times in the course of their latest sextet of matches. The number of goals that have been scored against them during those same clashes equals 6.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Internacional:

• are undefeated by Corinthians when they have played them away from home in the previous 4 league games. A solid away record against them.
• are undefeated in their last 3 away league matches.
• are without an away win for the past 5 league matches.

👥 Head to head

Looking at their prior head-to-head clashes going back to 14/05/2022 tells us that Corinthians have won 0 of them and Internacional 2, with the tally of draws standing at 4.

In all, 20 goals were scored between the two sides in these games, with 9 from Timão and 11 being from Colorado. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 3.33.

The previous league contest between these sides was Serie A match day 29 on 05/10/2024 and the score finished Corinthians 2-2 Internacional.

On that occasion, Corinthians managed 53% possession and 15 attempts on goal with 6 of them on target. The scorer was Yuri Alberto (3', 73').

For their opponents, Internacional got 9 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Alexandro Bernabéi (17') and Ricardo Mathias (94') scored.

The match was refereed by Lucas Paulo Torezin.

ℹ️ Team News: Corinthians

In all likelihood, Timão should go for a 4-3-1-2 system this time, beginning the first half with Hugo Souza, Matheuzinho, Andre Ramalho Silva, Caca, Hugo Farias, Raniele, Jose Andres Martinez, Andre Carrillo, Angel Romero, Memphis Depay and Yuri Alberto.

🗞️ Team News: Internacional

Internacional manager Roger Machado has to choose a team with limited availability. Gabriel Mercado (Cruciate ligament tear), Sergio Rochet (Broken hand), Rafael Borré (Hamstring injury), Johan Carbonero (Hamstring injury), Diego Rosa (Hamstring injury), Vitinho (Broken finger), Bruno Gomes (Cruciate ligament tear) and Lucca Drummond (Cruciate ligament injury) are not ready for selection.

We are inclined to think that Colorado will likely begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting the game with Anthoni, Braian Aguirre, Vitao, Victor Gabriel, Alexandro Bernabei, Fernando, Thiago Maia, Wesley, Bruno Henrique, Alan Patrick and Enner Valencia.

💭 Prediction

We’re of the opinion that Internacional will have to perform well to register a score against this Corinthians side who we think might well get the win and a maybe even keep a clean sheet as well.

That’s why we have predicted a narrow 1-0 winning score for Corinthians when the full-time whistle blows.

Hoping for a good game.
