São Paulo have won just two of their last ten away games this season | OneFootball

With an eye on securing a spot in the next edition of the Copa Libertadores, São Paulo faces a tough challenge next Thursday (20th). The Tricolor Paulista has a classic match ahead against Corinthians, at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Neo Química Arena, for the Brazilian Championship. However, to leave Itaquera with all three points, Hernán Crespo’s team must improve its away form: in the last ten matches, they have won only two.

In these ten matches, which included games for the Copa Libertadores, Copa do Brasil, and the Brasileirão, São Paulo won twice, drew twice, and suffered six defeats. However, in their most recent away match, the Tricolor beat Vasco 2-0 at São Januário.

Besides Vasco, the other win came against Fortaleza, on October 10th, also by a score of 2-0. The draws were against Sport and Atlético Nacional-COL, while the defeats came against Athletico-PR, Cruzeiro, LDU, Santos, Grêmio, and Mirassol.

Final stretch

Until the end of this season, besides the Majestoso this Thursday, São Paulo will have two more away games: on the 27th, they face Fluminense at Maracanã, and on December 7th, they wrap up their participation in the Brasileirão against Vitória, at Barradão.

With 45 points in 33 matches, São Paulo is in eighth place in the Brazilian Championship. The club’s main objective in the competition is to secure a spot in next year’s Copa Libertadores.
