This could be an interesting match as Corinthians have their presumed home advantage while Internacional are ahead 14 points in the Serie A table.
It's no vacation for neither Corinthians nor Internacional as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Internacional have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Corinthians form and stats
2 victories, 4 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Corinthians have to build on here at Arena Corinthians in the Serie A.
The Corinthians fans got no joy from their last match, a Copa do Brasil game also here at Arena Corinthians: A 0-1 defeat against America Mineiro. In the game before, an away victory in the Serie A match versus Vasco da Gama with a 2-1 scoreline.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Corinthians as they are travelling to their away game against America Mineiro in the Copa do Brasil. That match is four days after this one.
The Corinthians fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 8 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Corinthians defense is not exactly impregnable. 14 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Internacional form and stats
The visitors, who have the most clean sheets (8) in Serie A, are W4-D2-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Serie A. Momentum is building for Internacional in their away games, having won their two previous outings.
It's the second away game in a row for Internacional, but there's smiles all around after the 2-1 victory versus Atlético GO (placed 11th) in the Copa do Brasil last time out. A draw for Internacional before that, at their own venue hosting Flamengo (2-2).
A new game in only three days for Internacional, the Copa do Brasil home match versus Atlético GO. Busy days.
The visiting Internacional have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 13 goals from 9 games. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Internacional have conceded 9 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: three wins for Corinthians, five draws and two wins for Internacional. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.Top Goalscorers
