Campeonato Paulista: Corinthians U20s chase best winning run այս season | OneFootball

On Friday afternoon (21), at 3 p.m. (Brasília time), Corinthians will host Juventus-SP at Estádio Gabriel Marques da Silva, in Santana de Parnaíba, in its 11th match of the first phase of the 2026 Paulista Under-20 Championship. At the moment, Timãozinho leads Group 1 with 28 points — nine wins and one draw, with 24 goals scored and three conceded. If Alvinegro takes all three points, it can secure the top spot in the group if Santos, with 23 points, fail to beat América-SP at CT Rei Pelé — they could only reach 29 points.

In addition, Timãozinho takes the field looking to further extend its positive run this season. If it beats the Mooca side this Friday, it will record its sixth straight win of the season, which would represent William Batista’s team’s best winning streak of the year. Currently, Timão comes from victories over: Ponte Preta (H – 7 x 1), Itapirense (H – 4 x 0), União Suzano (A – 0 x 1), Ferroviária (H – 4 x 0) and Jabaquara (A – 0 x 2) – all valid for the state league in the category.

In June, during the simultaneous run of the Paulista and Brazilian championships, Corinthians achieved the same winning streak — so far also the longest of the season — by beating: Mirassol (A – 1 x 0), Avaí (H – 6 x 2), Portuguesa Santista (A – 2 x 0), Vitória (H – 2 x 1) and Cruzeiro (A – 1 x 2).

The positive results returned after the team’s elimination in the quarterfinals of the Brazilian Under-20 Championship against Palmeiras, when it was beaten 4 x 1 on aggregate. Until the end of this season, the club from Parque São Jorge has only the Paulista left, a title it has not won in the category since 2015.

After facing Juventus-SP at home in the Paulista Championship, Corinthians will remain focused on the state competition. Next Friday, September 4, at 3 p.m., Timãozinho will face São Bento away from home in its 12th match of the state tournament.
