New season, new opportunities: Here's what you need to know before the Corinthians - Atlético GO match!

Corinthians have less rest than Atlético GO in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Copa Sudamericana game only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus River Plate, was also a home game here at Neo Química Arena. The away team is better rested.

It's quite the trip for Atlético GO when visiting Corinthians as the cities are 900 kilometers apart.

Corinthians form and stats

It's the first season at a new level for Corinthians as they were promoted from Paulista A1 last season. Happy days that were secured through 7 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss from twelve games. The team scored 11 goals at home last season and conceded 7. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Corinthians have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 14 games) they have won five times, drawn six and lost three.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Copa do Brasil game versus Atlético GO in only three days. This game is also played here at Neo Química Arena.

Atlético GO form and stats

A job perfectly done for Atlético last season as they secured promotion from Goiano 1. With a grand total of 9 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 4 were in away matches.

Atlético GO are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is four wins, zero draws and four defeats. From a total of eight matches.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Atlético manager E. do Nascimento Souza as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Corinthians.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Corinthians won four, Atlético GO won three and three draws. three games with over 2,5 goals, seven matches with two goals or less.
