Santa Cruz take on the visitors Corinthians in the round 30 of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Thursday, October 13th.
Clearly, Santa Cruz weren’t ready to battle in elite Brazilian division after they earned promotion from Serie B in previous season. The hosting side hasn’t showed anything good so far this season in top division. Four defeats in four recent matches only confirm that the team need improvement to become competitive in Serie A. As the result of disappointing season, Santa Cruz are currently 19th in the league with 23 points gained in 29 matches, ahead of only America Mineiro, another promoted side. These two teams earned promotion together and they have good chances to go down together as well.

Corinthians won the title in previous season but this time they won’t get involved into a battle for top-three. The team suffers a deep crisis as their most recent win was recorded over a month ago and following six matches got the visiting side only two points. So, Corinthians have only42 points gained and ninth position in the league’s standings. The most recent home win was takes in the end of July, seven games on the road ago.
Corinthians have advantage in the head-to-heads between the opponents. They also were victorious in the reverse fixture, 2-1. Neither of the teams can be proud of their current conditions and both need to end disappointing streak, so we should expect at least a couple goals scored in the match.
Prediction for the match: over 2.0 goals.
