Corinthians form and stats

Corinthians are steadily winning Serie A games and points here at Arena Corinthians. 8 wins, 5 draws and 1 defeat is the summary from 14 games.

Corinthians's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Cruzeiro (placed 17th). Before that, Corinthians played out a draw 2-2 when visiting Goias.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Corinthians have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won 4 Drawn 2 Lost 1.

Corinthians are traveling soon after this match as the Serie A match at CSA awaits in four days.

Santos form and stats

The visitors are W6-D3-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Serie A.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Santos, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Atlético Mineiro (placed 12th). Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Ceará.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eight similar matches played by Santos in our archives, and the results are: 3 wins for Santos, 2 draws and 3 defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Santos as they have only managed to score 10 times from 14 away games in the league. 14 goals have been conceded by Santos in these games.

Head 2 Head

Santos - Corinthians 1-0 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Corinthians won 2 games, 4 matches ended with a draw and Santos has 4 wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: 1 / 9
