Corinthians look to end winless run in the Campeonato Brasileiro | OneFootball

Corinthians take the field this Sunday (12) at 6:30 p.m. (Brasília time) against Palmeiras at Neo Química Arena, in the 11th round of the Brazilian Championship, looking to end a negative run in the competition and improve their performances at home.

The black-and-white team have not won in seven rounds of the national tournament. During that stretch, they have recorded four draws and three defeats. The run began with a 1-1 draw against Cruzeiro away from home in the fourth round and continued with results that kept the team from moving closer to the top of the table.

After that, Corinthians were beaten 2-0 by Coritiba at Neo Química Arena and drew with Santos (1-1) and Chapecoense (0-0), both away from home. In the eighth round, they picked up another point at home with a 1-1 draw against Flamengo. Then they suffered a 3-1 defeat to Fluminense away from home and were beaten 1-0 by Internacional, once again in Itaquera.

In addition to the winless run, their home form has also been a point of concern. In five matches played at Neo Química Arena so far, Corinthians have managed just one win, along with one draw and three defeats.

Their only home victory came in the third round, when the team beat Red Bull Bragantino 2-0. In the other matches, Corinthians lost to Bahia (2-1), Coritiba (2-0) and Internacional (1-0), in addition to the draw with Flamengo.

Given this scenario, the derby against Palmeiras represents an opportunity for Corinthians to end their winless streak, improve their home form and begin climbing back up the Brazilian Championship table.
