Corinthians vs Santos Prediction & Betting Tips - Brasileirão Serie A

Corinthians host Santos in a major game for Round 14 of the Brasilian Serie A. In a peculiar scheduling quirk, the two teams played again three days ago at the same stadium for the cup, with Corinthians thrashing their opponents 4-0.  The home side are in top form coming into this one, occupying second place and a sole three points away from leaders Palmeiras. They are entering this fixture with just one loss in their last sixteen games and should be brimming with confidence after keeping three clean sheets in their last four. With regards to their home form, they are an extremely hard team to beat at the Neo Quimica Arena, where they are unbeaten in their last sixteen games. Besides gaining momentum from their cup thrashing, Corinthians tend to perform well in home matches against Santos, against whom they have lost just once in their last fourteen.

Santos are in mixed form at the moment. They might be unbeaten in their last five in the league, yet the humiliating cup loss against the same opponents will surely have impacted their momentum. This game also continued a negative trend which has seen Santos concede in eight consecutive matches, an issue that will need to be addressed if they are to get something against a well-drilled team such as Corinthians. Fabian Bustos’ side have found it hard to pick up wins away from home of late, with just one win in five and goals conceded in all of those telling all the story.
