On Thursday night, Corinthians host Sport Recife, as both teams look for elusive wins in the early stages of the Brazilian Serie A campaign.
Corinthians have made a poor start to the new Serie A campaign, winning just one of their five matches in the Brazilian top-flight. The home side’s poor form this season has just continued from last season, as they have now won just one of their last ten matches in Serie A.
A 0-0 draw at Bahia last time out also continued a low-scoring trend in Corinthians league matches, as seven of their last eight Serie A outings have seen under 2.5 goals scored.
The fact that the home side has failed to score in five of their previous eight league matches has been a contributing factor in the low-scoring encounters.
Corinthians also have a poor recent home record in Serie A, having won just one of their last six league matches on home soil.
Sport Recife have made a poor start to their Serie A campaign, picking up just four points from their opening five outings in the Brazilian top-flight. The poor start to the league campaign has left them just two points clear of the relegation zone.
A 1-0 defeat at Juventude last time out was their third defeat in four Serie A matches. The game also saw the visitors fail to score for the third time in their previous four league games.
Sport Recife have also struggled away from home in the Brazilian top-flight of late, having failed to win in four matches, while suffering three defeats in the process.
The visitors have also struggled for goals on their travels, failing to score in the three defeats.
Forebet predicts that Corinthians will get back to winning ways in a low-scoring encounter, which will continue Sport Recife’s underwhelming campaign.
