Atlético GO form and stats

Atlético GO have played 9 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-4-3 (wins-draws-losses).

Ze Roberto was the last player to score a league goal for Atlético GO and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Atlético haven't scored in 225 minutes.

Atlético are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Internacional. Heartbreak before that as Atlético GO lost 0-1 at Coritiba's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Atlético GO perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Atlético GO as a small favourite), we find seven games. Atlético GO has won four of these, drawn two and lost one.

Atlético GO are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 12 goals in 9 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 14 goals have been conceded.

Corinthians form and stats

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Corinthians in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Corinthians, three draws and four defeats.
