Corinthians count on strong record against Chapecoense to stay unbeaten | OneFootball

On the night of this Thursday (19th), at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), Corinthians visits Chapecoense at Arena Condá, in a match valid for the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship. At this moment, with some games already played, the Corinthians team is in ninth place with eight points – two wins, two draws, and two losses – six goals scored and six conceded.

The club from Parque São Jorge, against the team from Santa Catarina, will seek to maintain its good track record against the opponent. The first match in history between Corinthians and Chapecoense took place on May 4, 2014, when, also at Arena Condá, the Alvinegro won 1-0, in the first round of that year's Brasileirão. The Corinthians goal, on that occasion, was scored by forward Paolo Guerrero.

Since then, the teams have faced each other 18 times, with 12 Corinthians victories, four draws, and two losses – 20 goals scored and seven conceded. Considering matches at Arena Condá, the advantage is also with Corinthians. In nine encounters between the teams at the venue, there are seven victories for the club from Parque São Jorge and two losses. Additionally, there are 11 goals scored and four conceded.

It is worth noting that Corinthians has not lost the last five games against Chapecoense, winning all of them, without conceding any goals and scoring six. The last defeat to the team from Santa Catarina occurred on April 17, 2019, when they were narrowly beaten at Arena Condá, in the first leg of the third round of the Copa do Brasil.

The two teams have not faced each other since the 2021 season, as in recent seasons, Chapecoense has been playing in the Série B and C of the Brasileirão. In the year of their last two encounters, the club from Parque São Jorge won both Brasileirão matches 1-0. In the first round, in Santa Catarina, they triumphed with a goal from former forward Jô. In the second, at Neo Química Arena, the three points came with a goal by Róger Guedes in the last moment of the game.

After facing Chapecoense away, Corinthians will remain focused on the national competition. This is because, next Sunday (22nd), at 8:30 PM (Brasília time), the Corinthians team will host Flamengo at Neo Química Arena, for the eighth round of the Brazilian Championship.
