Corinthians will visit Santos next Wednesday at Vila Belmiro, at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), for the 28th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. Facing their rival, Timão hopes to improve its recent record in away derbies in the national league.
The black-and-white team has achieved only a 23.3% success rate in its last 10 away derbies in the Brasileirão. In total, there were seven losses, two wins, and one draw. Curiously, both victories came against Peixe.
In the current season, the team from Itaquera lost to Palmeiras and São Paulo away from home, both by 2-0. Last year, the black-and-white team was also defeated twice by the capital rivals. The team lost 3-1 to Tricolor and 2-0 to Verdão.
The last away win in a derby happened in June 2023, when Corinthians beat Santos 2-0, with goals from Yuri Alberto and Ruan Oliveira. However, the team was also defeated by São Paulo and Palmeiras.
The best recent performance was in 2022. In that edition, Timão beat Santos and drew with São Paulo, but lost to Palmeiras.
Despite the poor away record in the Brasileirão, one factor that excites Corinthians fans is the good performance in derbies this year. Of the 12 played, Timão achieved six wins and lost only three, in addition to three draws. The success rate is positive: 58.3%.
Corinthians hopes to achieve its second consecutive win in the Brasileirão and climb the table. Dorival Júnior’s team is in 12th place, with 33 points. Santos, meanwhile, is 16th, with 28 points.
