Corinthians form and stats
Corinthians have collected 12 points from their Serie A home games so far after 3-3-1.
The Corinthians manager da Silva and his side return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Newell's Old Boys in the Copa Sudamericana.
Preceding that game was the away draw at Internacional that finished 2-2.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Corinthians matches with similar probabilities have ended with 5 wins, 2 draws and 0 defeats (from 7 games).
Low-scoring affair? Looking at this club's last 12 league games, 10 have produced two goals or less.
The manager da Silva will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Sao Paulo in only three days.
The Corinthians fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 7 matches. Corinthians are not conceding a lot of goals here at Neo Química Arena in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 6 from 7 matches.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Botafogo wasn't a success with a 1-4 loss.Looking at the earlier recent performances of Coritiba when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 8 matches with the visitors losing 7 times, drawing 1 and winning 0 games.
