Santos and Corinthians face off on Wednesday night, in a match valid for the 28th round of the Brazilian Championship. The ball rolls at Vila Belmiro, in Santos (SP), starting at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time).
Santos is trying to bounce back in the Brasileirão after a bitter 3-0 defeat to Ceará away from home. With just one win in the last eight games, the Peixe sit in 16th place with 28 points, three more than Vitória, who top the relegation zone.
The Baixada Santista club’s last win was on September 21. On that occasion, the Alvinegro Praiano beat São Paulo 1-0 at Vila Belmiro, with a goal from Guilherme.
Corinthians arrive for the derby against Santos in a moment of slight recovery in the Brazilian Championship. After a period of inconsistency, Dorival Júnior’s team returned to winning convincingly in the last round, beating Mirassol 3-0 at Neo Química Arena. The result ended a run of three games without a victory and gave the team new momentum; they now occupy 12th place with 33 points, five more than their rival this Wednesday.
Before the win, Timão had drawn 1-1 with Internacional away and lost to Flamengo and Sport in succession, which had increased the pressure on the squad and the coach. Despite the recent improvement, the team still seeks greater defensive consistency and offensive efficiency — points Dorival has tried to fix in training.
The derby between Corinthians and Santos has a long history. In total, the teams have faced each other 313 times, with 124 wins for Corinthians, 99 for Santos and 90 draws. Corinthians’ advantage is more evident when the match is at home: in 167 games as hosts, Timão won 82, drew 46 and lost 39. At Vila Belmiro, the balance is greater — the Peixe have 60 wins, against 42 for the Alvinegro from São Paulo, plus 44 draws.
The last meeting between the rivals took place on May 18, 2025, in the Brasileirão, and ended with a 1-0 win for Corinthians in Itaquera, with a goal from Yuri Alberto.

Vojvoda should have two important returns. Midfielder Victor Hugo has recovered from an injury to the right adductor muscle and should be included in the squad. The player is training normally.
Another who should also be available is right-back Mayke. He has recovered from inflammation in his right knee, which kept him out of the match against Ceará.
On the other hand, the Argentine coach will continue to be without Neymar, who is recovering from an injury to the rectus femoris muscle in his right thigh. Midfielder Tomás Rincón, with swelling in his left calf, should also be a miss for the Peixe. Tiquinho Soares, suspended, completes the list of absences.
On the other side, coach Dorival Júnior will once again have headaches to assemble Corinthians for the derby against Santos. Goalkeeper Hugo Souza is on duty with the Brazilian National Team and will miss the team, while André Ramalho, Charles and Vitinho remain in treatment in the medical department. In addition, left-back Matheus Bidu is suspended.
On the other hand, Dorival will have important reinforcements. Memphis Depay, Rodrigo Garro and André Carrillo have been named in the squad and could be on the bench, although they still have physical limitations and should have controlled minutes. The coach also expects another good performance from the young Gui Negão, a recent standout for the team.
Gabriel Brazão; Igor Vinícius, Adonis Frías, Luan Peres and Escobar; João Schmidt, Zé Rafael, Gabriel Bontempo (Barreal) and Rollheiser; Guilherme and Lautaro Díaz.
Felipe Longo; Matheuzinho, João Pedro Tchoca, Gustavo Henrique and Fabrizio Angileri; Raniele, Maycon, Hugo and Breno Bidon; Gui Negão and Yuri Alberto.
