  • Competition: Serie A
  • Date: Friday, 18th October, 2024
  • Kickoff: 00:00 UK / 01:00 CEST
  • Venue: Neo Quimica Arena (Sao Paulo)

On the night between Thursday and Friday, Corinthians and Athletico Paranense will face off in the 30th round of the Brazilian Serie A at Neo Quimica Arena in Sao Paulo.

Corinthians had a really bad last year, as they finished 13th - seven points away from the danger zone. While everyone expected a bounce-back season from "The Timão", their poor results continued. Right now, they are in 18th place with 29 points, one point away from the safe zone, although with one more game played than 16th-placed Fluminense. In contrast to Serie A performances, Corinthians have been excellent in Cup competitions. They reached the Semi-Finals in Copa Sudamericana, where they will face off against Racing Club (Argentina). Also, they reached the Semi-Finals in the domestic Cup, where they will have a second-leg game against Flamengo after the Athletico Paranense game. In the first leg, Corinthians lost 1:0 away from home.

Athletico Paranense are playing their 12th consecutive season in Serie A, where they were mostly in the mid or upper half of the league's table. However, this season has been disappointing, considering they are very close to the relegation zone. Currently, they are in 15th place, two points away from the danger zone, although they have played fewer games than most teams. However, their form is a massive reason for concern, as they lost three games in a row. Interestingly, Athletico Paranense just lost in the Copa Sudamericana Quarter-Finals to Corinithians' next opponent, Racing Club. However, elimination from that competition might give them a little help in focusing on survival in Serie A.

Corinthians vs Athletico Paranense pic: Corinthians to win

Corinthians had their ups and downs lately, but pretty much all of their poor performances came away from home. At Neo Quimica Arena, The Timao lost once in the last five matches while winning on four occasions. Additionally, in Serie A, Corinthians won 23 of their 29 points, which is almost 80% of their points in total. The last game against Internacional proved that Corinthians are really dangerous at home. The game ended as a 2:2 draw, but the hosts were a better team and probably deserved all three points.

Athletico Paranense lost three games in a row in all competitions while scoring just one goal - 0.33 per game. Also, in recent road games, Athletico PR have been simply terrible, winning just one point in the last five games.

In the previous three h2h games at Neo Quimica Arena, Corinthians won every time while allowing just one goal. Considering the previous h2h games at Neo Quimica Arena, Corinthian's excellent home pitch performances, and Athletico PR's poor road performances, we believe that the hosts are much closer to winning the upcoming Serie A game.

Atletico PR team news

The right full-back, Madson, and a starting central defender, Kaique Rocha, received their third yellow card in the previous game and will serve a one-game suspension against Corinthians. Losing Madson isn't such a problem because Leonardo Godoy is probably a better player anyway, while the absence of Kaique Rocha is a massive problem. The 23-year-old defender started in the last 13 games in all competitions. 

Meanwhile, due to injury, the team will only miss Fernandinho, who is out with a muscle injury. He should be sidelined for a few more weeks.
