Fluminense complete fourth double over Corinthians in the points era | OneFootball

With wins in Rio and São Paulo in the 2026 Brasileirão, Tricolor extends its edge in the head-to-head record for double wins

Fluminense once again pulled off a “sweep” over Corinthians in the Brazilian Championship by beating the São Paulo side in both the first and second halves of the 2026 edition. With the 3-1 win at Neo Química Arena, added to the same scoreline from the earlier match at the Maracanã, Tricolor secured victory in both meetings of the national competition.

The feat reinforces Fluminense’s superiority in the recent history of this matchup in the round-robin era. This was the fourth time Fluminense won both matches against the São Paulo rival in the same Série A season, having previously done so in 2016, 2019 and 2022. Corinthians, in turn, achieved it twice (2010 and 2017), according to research by Guh Souza / Noite de Copa.
