Match Preview

Although Corinthians maintain a healthy eight-point lead at the top of the Brasileiro Série A, their recent rocky patch has seen their lead eaten away to a more targetable number for the chasing pack. Fábio Carille has been left frustrated by his player’s sudden dip in performances coming into our Corinthians vs Coritiba preview and what started as a minor blip has escalated into something of a crisis.

Timao have won just once in seven in the week before our free Corinthians vs Coritiba betting tips and their confidence took a further battering on Thursday when they were taken apart by Spanish club Deportiva La Coruna in a friendly clash that ended 7-0 to the La Liga side.

Second, from bottom Coritiba have been battling to avoid relegation for the majority of the season. Marcelo Oliveira will be used to being the unfancied team in the bookies’ soccer odds as his side look to find their first win in eight fixtures this week. The Coxa couldn’t score in four of those seven contests, in fact, they are the second lowest scorers in Série A in 2017. Oliveira’s men produced a dogged display to hold the league leaders to a 0-0 draw when the side last faced-off in June.

Corinthians vs Coritiba Prediction and Betting Advice

Although recent form must be taken into account, the home team should still be considered huge favourites to come out on top this week, making them the first pick from today’s Corinthians vs Coritiba bets. 10Bet have closed the odds on a victory for Carille’s team to take the points and you can get incredible value for that option with that bookmaker.

The Time do Povo haven’t been turned over by their visitors in eleven previous meetings with them and though at present our analysed teams share quite a lot of similarities in terms of recent results, Corinthians have the quality to turn things around while their opponents don’t. The home outfit are unbeaten in five domestic matches and they should have far too much for their opponents in the drop zone.

As we mentioned earlier, the teams in today’s Corinthians vs Coritiba predictions and football tips are drawing parallels lately with their performances. One trait they have shared has been in their lack of cutting edge in front of goal. All nine of the home team’s most recent games in Brazil have finished with under 2.5 goals scored. In seven of the last eight fixtures for the visitors, the 2.5 goal mark has not been surpassed.

The last two duels between the teams were lacking in penalty area action too, finishing 1-1 and 0-0. A repeat of either scoreline on Thursday would see our bet come in, though we suspect the home team will take the points with a narrow 1-0 or 2-0 victory. The Coxa have only amassed two goals from their last four away trips – they have plundered just twelve goals on the road all campaign. Having compared them to their competitors, Betway emerged as the best choice for bettors looking for optimal value.
