Corinthians on their worst run of results since 2024 | OneFootball

Besides Dorival Júnior experiencing his worst sequence of results at the helm of Corinthians, Timão is also going through its worst sequence of results in almost two years. After the goalless draw with Chapecoense last Thursday at Arena Condá, the Alvinegro reached six games without a positive result, something that hadn't happened since 2024.

The last victory for Corinthians this season occurred on February 19, when they defeated Athletico-PR 1-0 at Arena da Baixada. Since then, there have been four draws and two losses.

After defeating Athletico-PR, Corinthians had a sequence of away games against Portuguesa, Cruzeiro, and Novorizontino. After drawing 1-1 in the first two matches, they lost to the Novo Horizonte team by the minimum score and bid farewell to the Paulistão.

When they returned to Neo Química Arena, Corinthians was surprised by Coritiba and lost 2-0. Subsequently, they drew 1-1 with Santos at Vila Belmiro and had a goalless draw against Chapecoense.

The last time Corinthians went six games without a win was between July and August 2024, with five draws and one loss. At the time, Timão had just been taken over by Argentine Ramón Díaz.

Corinthians experienced a terrible moment that season, even fighting against relegation, but managed to recover in the final stretch. Timão finished the tournament in seventh place, qualifying for the Pre-Libertadores and the following year's Copa do Brasil, which the Alvinegro won.

Worst Sequence for Dorival Júnior

Besides being the worst sequence for Corinthians in a span of two years, it is also the worst sequence for coach Dorival Júnior since arriving at Timão in April 2025.

Previously, the coach's worst drought at Corinthians was five games, between May and June of last year, with two losses and three draws.

Now, Corinthians will try to recover and end this winless streak this Sunday when they host Flamengo for the eighth round of the Brasileirão. The match kicks off at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) at Neo Química Arena.
