Corinthians’ standing in the Brasileirão after nine-round action so far | OneFootball

Corinthians traveled to Maracanã Stadium on Wednesday night (1) to face Fluminense in a match valid for the ninth round of the 2026 Brazilian Championship, and ended up losing 3-1. Alvinegro’s goal was scored by defensive midfielder André late in the second half, after he pounced on a loose ball from a challenge inside the box.

The defeat left Corinthians in 11th place with 10 points accumulated – two wins, four draws, and three losses – with eight goals scored and 10 conceded. Despite staying in the same position, the club from Parque São Jorge could be overtaken by up to three teams if they win their matches: Santos, RB Bragantino, and Chapecoense or Atlético-MG – the latter two will face each other at Arena Condá.

The first team inside the relegation zone with seven points, the Baixada Santista side will host Remo this Thursday (2) at Vila Belmiro at 7 p.m. (Brasília time). With seven and eight points respectively, Chapecoense and Atlético-MG will face each other at the same time in Santa Catarina. Finally, Massa Bruta will host Flamengo at Estádio Cícero de Souza Marques at 9:30 p.m.

After being beaten by Fluminense away from home in the Brazilian Championship, Corinthians keep their focus on the national competition. That is because next Sunday (5), at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), they will host Internacional at Neo Química Arena for the 10th round of the tournament. Under pressure, Dorival Júnior’s team will look for a win after eight matches.
