Chapecoense vs Corinthians
Brazil – Serie A
Date: Friday, 9 July 2021
Kick-off at 1:00 UK/ 2:00 CET
Venue: Arena Condá.
Corinthians are on a long unbeaten run at the moment, and also have one of the best defenses in the Serie A. Meanwhile, Chapecoense are yet to register a win this season, and have the worst defense in the league. Likely, expect a Corinthians victory this Friday.
As of now, Chapecoense are placed second to last in the table. They were promoted to the top flight just at the end of the previous season, and they also have conceded the most number of goals till now in the Serie A.
In the meantime, Corinthians are one of the three teams to stay unbeaten in the past five match-ups in the Brazilian top flight, and also only one other squad has conceded fewer goals than them in the competition.
On top of that, they also have a superb h2h record against this rival over the years.
By the looks of things, expect a win for Corinthians this weekend.
Chapecoense are on a nine-game winless run, and they had remained so in 13 of their past 14 overall fixtures. Note that they had also remained so in six of their last seven home appearances.
On the other hand, their counterparts were invincible in eight of their former nine overall matches, and they were unbeaten in 14 of their last 16 away games as well.
Finally, Chapecoense also have a poor h2h record against this foe over the years.
By the looks of things, expect a win for Corinthians this Friday.
