Corinthians
- Corinthians have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 3 of their last 5 matches.
- Corinthians Paulista are in poor form heading into Sunday's clash with Chape, mid-table in Serie A 2026.
- After a 2-1 defeat at Coritiba and a 0-1 home loss to Santos, the 2017 champions have lost 2 consecutive games.
Chapecoense
- Chapecoense have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 3 of their last 5 games.
- Chape have won 0, drawn 0 and lost 3 of their last 3 away games.
- Chapecoense SC are in an entirely different position, languishing 20th in the table with a measly 14 points from 24 matches, and the table doesn't lie.
Head-to-Head
- The last head-to-head meeting in Serie A 2026 finished 0-0 at Chapecoense's ground, so there is the potential for this game to get a little sticky.
- Chape have been pragmatic and compact under Lacerda, with a lower block, quick transitions and set-piece danger.
Key Players
Giovanni Augusto is Chape's creative hub, supplying 4 assists in the last 5 games, while Tulio Eduardo has been the cutting edge, bagging 2 of Chape's 6 goals in that time.
Betting Insights
- The away record of Chape is awful - 3 draws and 9 losses in 12 trips - while the fact they have conceded 22 goals away from home tells a tale of a leaky back line.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.93 looks the right play for a game that is likely to be cagey, particularly if we add both teams to score - No at 1.62 into the mix.
Prediction
With Corinthians1.36 favourites and Chape 8.6 away from home, we must side with the hosts for the win, but we won't be too ambitious with our prediction.
