Corinthians played again at the Neo Química Arena after nearly two months away from home and reunited with its fans in the best way possible.

The victory also represented an important milestone in the season. With the result, Corinthians reached its tenth win at the Neo Química Arena in 2026. So far, the club has played 17 home matches at the stadium, totaling ten wins, three draws, and four defeats.

This performance means that the 2026 season matches the numbers recorded in 2017, 2018, and 2023, years in which Timão also needed 17 home games to reach its tenth victory.

The best performance in the history of the Neo Química Arena remains that of 2016, when Corinthians won its first ten matches played at the stadium. Next come the 2015 season, when the mark was reached after 11 matches, and 2025, which recorded ten wins in just 13 home games.

At the other end, the years 2020 and 2021 were the ones that required the most matches to reach the same number of victories. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the absence of fans for much of the competitions, Corinthians needed to play 23 home games in 2020 and 21 in 2021 to achieve ten wins.

In addition to the milestone reached at the Neo Química Arena, the result against Remo strengthens the team’s campaign in the Brazilian Championship. Corinthians moved up in the table, reached 27 points, and entered the qualification zone for continental competitions, beginning the second half of the year with an important result in front of its fans.
