Venue: Estádio José Pinheiro Borda (50128 seats)

This could be an interesting match as Internacional have their presumed home advantage while Corinthians are ahead 3 points in the Serie A table.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Corinthians 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.

Internacional form and stats

Internacional have been very solid at home so far, with 19 points collected from 7 matches (6-1-0). This has contributed greatly to their 7th position in the league table. The Internacional fans aren't used to losing here at Estádio José Pinheiro Borda and will expect new points from this game. Internacional has played 14 games in a row here without a defeat.

Happy days for Internacional in their previous game, a Copa do Brasil match away at Cruzeiro that ended with a 1-0 victory. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Fluminense (1-2).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Corinthians form and stats

As the visiting team Corinthians have produced an overall stat of 2-2-2 so far. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Corinthians, as they have won on their previous two travels.

The supporters enjoyed Corinthians's previous game versus Goiás, a Serie A 2-0 win played at home. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Palmeiras.

We have checked recent matches where Corinthians have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those six games were W0-D1-L5.

Corinthians find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 8 goals from 6 away fixtures. As opposed to that, Corinthians have seen the ball go into their own net 6 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: 2 - 3 - 5 (Internacional wins - draws - Corinthians wins). As for goals, 5 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 5 had two or less.
