Corinthians, Recent FormCorinthians will not be too disheartened with their 2-0 away defeat at the hands of Flamengo who sit 13 places above them in the table. They came away from that fixture with 42% of the possession and clocked up 13 attempts on goal with 3 on target. By comparison, Flamengo managed 18 attempts on goal, with 9 on target.
Having conceded 5 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 5 points. They have failed to score in 5 of their last 6 games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Botafogo, Recent FormBotafogo manager Artur Jorge will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Fortaleza. They achieved 57% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Fortaleza's tally of 10 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 7 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
On an individual basis, Danilo Barbosa is giving Botafogo's travelling fans plenty to shout about having scored 3 goals in the squad's last 6 away games in the league.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Corinthians that came out on top with a 1-0 win.
Corinthians have scored in each of their last 10 games at home in the league against Estrela Solitária. During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at Neo Química Arena, Estrela Solitária have been unable to break through the Corinthians defence and find the back of the net.
In the league, Corinthians has a good track record when they host Botafogo, getting the better of them in their last 2 home games.
