Atletico Paranaense takes on the visitors Corinthians Paulista in Brazilian Serie A – Round 36. The game will be played on Thursday, November 22nd at Arena da Baixada (Curitiba).
Atletico needs only three points to be qualified for the CONMEBOL Libertadores and it is playing its next game with Flamengo Rowing Club that aspires to win the championship. Atletico has much to lose indeed. They are really weak at away matches, so this may be the only chance to claim the sixth position in the standings. And the team can step up the game. Still, we would rather stress out that in their home Serie A matches Atletico has got yet eleven victories in a row with only few conceded goals. This amazing statistics is unlikely to change in the game against the opponent that has struggling throughout the season.

In theory, the champion can still go down to Serie B; for this, they just need to lose the remaining games. It is all possible considering their ineffective performance during the whole season. Two away wins in seventeen rounds – normally this is a typical underdog experience. The guests concede in almost each round with the only exception in the match with Vasco da Gama out of ten latest games. In our view, Corinthians again will not be able to keep it dry. There is nothing which could help the team to grow stronger in the end. Currently they hold the twelfth position having the last away win yet in summer. Corinthians still have a chance to get to the CONMEBOL Sudamericana, but can this be an excuse though?
The odds offered on home win are little over than 1.70, and this can be seen as a big award under the performance of the home team and the weak play of the champion. Atletico will score, and what about the opponent? We can safely try -1.0 handicap. The home team is in a really good shape now.
Prediction for the match: Atletico Paranaense to win.
