Chapecoense v Corinthians: home resilience meets unbeaten away run | OneFootball

Chapecoense host Corinthians in the Brasileirão at Arena Condá on Friday, 20 March 2026, with the hosts unbeaten at home and the visitors yet to lose away. The points on offer could firm up Corinthians' Sudamericana push and pull Chapecoense up the table.

Recent meetings have been tight. Corinthians won both league clashes in 2021 by 1-0, while Chapecoense's last home league win in the fixture came in 2018.

Chape arrive off a 1-1 draw with Grêmio and a mixed five-game run across competitions (W-L-W-L-D). Timão drew at Santos after a home defeat by Coritiba, leaving them with one win in five.

Verdão do Oeste are without defenders Marcos and Mancha, midfielder Bruno Matias and forwards Robert and Garcez de Jesus, with Bruno Matias sidelined until 20 May. For Coringão, defender Hugo and goalkeeper Felipe Longo are injured.

Verdão do Oeste have scored and conceded nine in five league matches, while Coringão's six for and six against in six point to tighter margins. With Chape unbeaten at home and Timão unbeaten away, the first goal could be decisive.

Chape sit 14th on six points. A win would move them up the standings and closer to the Sudamericana places. Timão are ninth on eight points in the Sudamericana zone. Victory would strengthen that position and could lift them further into the pack.
