Corinthians prepare to contest Santos in this Paulista A1 fixture. All you need to know about the game is located here!

These are full days for the host team, as they had a game only three days ago in the Paulista A1. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Santo Andre.

Corinthians form and stats

The first Paulista A1 game here at Neo Química Arena resulted in a draw. Last season Corinthians's home game statistics were 10 victories, 5 draws and 4 defeats from 19 games. In general it's been a long time since Corinthians tasted defeat here at Neo Química Arena, as they have taken at least one point from their last 13 home games in the league.

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Matheus Planelles Donelli not having conceded a league goal in 194 minutes.

Happy days for Corinthians in their previous game, a fixture away at Santo Andre that ended with a 1-0 victory.

In the match before that, Corinthians hosted Ferroviaria and drew the game 0-0.

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 four wins, zero draws and zero defeats (from four games).

There will be little rest for Corinthians after this match as they are travelling to Ituano for a Paulista A1 game in only four days.

Corinthians has scored 0 goals so far and conceded 0 goals from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Santos form and stats

One match played away so far in the Paulista A1 for Santos and it was a tie. Last season the statistics for their away games were 3 wins, 8 draws and 8 losses from 19 games.

Santos aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 225 league minutes without a goal. Jorge was the last player to find the net.

Santos might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Botafogo SP proved too strong as Santos slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Estádio Urbano Caldeira.

Before that, Santos travelled to Inter de Limeira and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Santos when being an outsider away as they are today, we find five matches with the visitors losing two times, drawing one and winning two games.

Santos have another game away in just four sleeps, a Paulista A1 game vs Guarani. A rough timetable for them!

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Santos has managed 0 goals and let in 0 from 1 match.

Head 2 Head

Head to head statistics (for the prior ten meetings): Corinthians won four games, three matches ended in a draw and Santos have three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: one / nine
