Athletico Paranaense come into the game having lost 2-1 at São Paulo in Serie A on Wednesday night. It was Athletico Paranaense who opened the scoring in the 11th minute but it did not take long for the hosts to equalise.
Athletico Paranaense conceded a second goal early in the second half and could not find a way back into the match.
The loss at São Paulo means Athletico Paranaense have failed to win their last 2 fixtures.
There was also a 2-2 draw at América Mineiro in Serie A, with Athletico Paranaense once again taking the lead but failing to hold on to their advantage.
Trends show Athletico Paranaense are undefeated in 4 of their 5 most recent matches in all competitions.
There are no losses for Atlético Paranaense in 18 of their most recent 20 home games and they have won 6 of their last 7 home Serie A matches.
Corinthians come into the game on the back of a good 2-0 win at Santos in Serie A. Corinthians opened the scoring in the 19th minute and added a second goal 9 minutes later.
There were no further goals in the match and the win helped Corinthians close the gap on Santos to 2 points in the table.
The victory over Santos was the first win in 4 fixtures in all competitions for Corinthians. They had previously tasted defeat away to América Mineiro in Serie A and Independiente Valle in the Copa Libertadores, the latter of which was a 3-0 loss.
There was also a 1-1 draw at home with Cuiabá in Serie A, with Corinthians having to come from behind to take a point.
Trends show Corinthians have won 2 of their last 10 Serie A matches, which is a poor record. They have recorded just a single victory from their 7 most recent away league games and have lost 5 of their last 6 away Serie A matches.
Corinthians have failed to score a goal in 3 of their last 4 away trips in the league.
Team news and Corinthians are without Renato Augusto, Paulinho, Víctor Cantillo, and Gustavo Silva, who are all in the treatment room.
Athletico Paranaense make the trip without the injured duo of Pablo and Fernandinho.
Despite winning their most recent away Serie A fixture, Corinthians have been poor away from home in the league. They come up against a Athletico Paranaense team who have been strong at home and we expect to see the hosts claim maximum points and keep a clean sheet in the process.
