The Corinthians are enjoying a good run under the leadership of Dorival Júnior. The team, in addition to qualifying for the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil, has been undefeated for four games in the current season. Now, they aim for a unprecedented streak in 2025 against Sport, at Ilha do Retiro, this Sunday.
The Timão can, for the first time this year, win four consecutive away games. They already have three consecutive victories, against Vasco, Athletico-PR, and Fluminense.
The black and white team had a good streak away from their fans this year, between the Paulistão and the Libertadores. At the time led by Ramón Díaz, the team went five games without losing as a visitor. At that stage, however, there were only two victories and three other draws.
One advantage for Corinthians in this mission is Sport's terrible home record in the Brazilian Championship. The Lion of the Island is the worst host of the tournament, with only a 16% success rate. The northeasterners have not yet won in front of their fans and have five draws and five losses.
The Timão, on the other hand, is the seventh-best visitor in the Series. Dorival Júnior's team, in 12 away games, has achieved three wins, four draws, and five losses.
On the other hand, Corinthians' goal will not be so easy to achieve. This is because Dorival Júnior has significant absences to face Sport.
André Carrillo and Rodrigo Garro, injured, as well as Gui Negão, suspended, are certain absences. Memphis Depay, on the other hand, who is dealing with an edema in his right thigh, is not expected to be available.
