Corinthians on their longest winless run of the season | OneFootball

Corinthians suffered a setback against Coritiba on Wednesday night, in a match valid for the fifth round of the Brazilian Championship. Playing at Neo Química Arena, the São Paulo team was defeated 2-0. With this result, Corinthians reached its worst streak of the 2026 season. The team has now gone four consecutive matches without a win, including games from both the Brasileirão and the Campeonato Paulista.

During this period, Timão faced Portuguesa and Grêmio Novorizontino in the state championship, as well as Cruzeiro and Coritiba itself in the national tournament. Although they advanced past Portuguesa in a penalty shootout, the match ended 1-1 in regular time and, therefore, is statistically considered a draw.

The last time the club experienced a similar streak was at the end of last season. Between November 23 and December 7, Corinthians lost to Cruzeiro and Fortaleza, and also drew with Botafogo and Juventude. All these matches took place in the Brazilian Championship and preceded the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil.

Before that period, the team had already gone through another tough moment between May and June of 2025. At that time, Corinthians was defeated by Huracán from Argentina in a Copa Sudamericana match, and also by Red Bull Bragantino in the Brasileirão. In addition, they drew with Atlético Mineiro, Vitória, and Grêmio in the national competition.

After the most recent defeat, Corinthians is now turning its attention to the next fixture of the season. On Sunday (15), the team faces Santos in the traditional Clássico Alvinegro. The match is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. at Vila Belmiro, for the sixth round of the Brazilian Championship.
