Corinthians out to extend unbeaten Chapecoense record at Neo Química Arena | OneFootball

According to Meu Timao, Corinthians host Chapecoense at the Neo Química Arena on Sunday aiming to return to winning ways in the Brasileirão. They remain unbeaten against the visitors at this ground.

There have been eight meetings in Itaquera, with four Corinthians wins and four draws. The first three league encounters, in 2014, 2016 and 2017, all ended 1-1, and those are Chapecoense’s only three goals at the venue.

In 2018 the clubs met twice. In August Corinthians won 1-0 in the Copa do Brasil quarter-finals through Ángel Romero, taking a first-leg lead. The return at Arena Condá finished by the same scoreline and they advanced to the semi-finals. In November the sides drew 0-0 in the league.

In 2019 there were again two encounters. Corinthians won 2-0 in April in the Copa do Brasil fourth phase, with goals from Boselli and Mateus Vital, then followed up with a 1-0 league win in May thanks to Carlos Augusto. The most recent meeting at the arena was a 1-0 Brasileirão victory in 2021, sealed late by Roger Guedes.

Across all competitions the head-to-head stands at 19 games, with 12 Corinthians wins, 5 draws and 2 Chapecoense victories.

Corinthians have 32 points and cannot climb this round, as ninth-placed Red Bull Bragantino are on 35 with two more wins. They could, however, avoid being overtaken by São Paulo and Botafogo, who have 30 points each.
