Corinthians hosts Sao Paulo in round 8 of Brazilian Serie A. The match will be played on Thursday, July 1st at Neo Quimica Arena (Sao Paulo)
On May 16, Corinthians fired their head coach Wagner Mancini after a defeat to Palmeiras in the Campeonato Paulista semifinals (0-2). On May 23, the club's management appointed Sylvinho, a former coach of Olympique Lyon. As for the first match under the leadership of the new coach, Corinthians played against Atletico Goianiense in the opening round of Serie A. Sylvinho’s men were defeated with a score of 0-1. The results of Corinthians have not improved much over time. In total, the team played nine games in different tournaments. In this segment, it gained two victories, tied four times, and suffered three defeats. Corinthians are in 11th place in the championship standings. The main problem for the Great Team is the conversion of scoring chances. On average, the team scores only 0.8 goals per match, and this is only the 12th result in the championship. Corinthians did not score a single goal in two out of seven games.

After the victory in Campeonato Paulista, the affairs of Sao Paulo did not go well. The Faith Team played seven matches Brazilian Serie A and did not gain a single victory (four draws and three defeats). The men of Hernan Crespo are ranked 17th in the standings. If we look at their last nine matches in all tournaments, they were able to beat only Jules Esporte from the fourth division of Brazilian football. The teams met in the Brazilian Cup 1/16 finals, and Sao Paulo hammered the opponent with a score of 9-1. Tricolor Paulista is among the worst Serie A teams in many respects, but the team's attack looks the worst. On average, Sao Paulo players score 0.6 goals per game, which is the penultimate figure in the championship. The team has not scored a single goal in four out of seven Serie A matches.
This is a risky bet, but it is based on statistics. Both teams show rather weak results in the current season of Serie A. Corinthians won only one of three home matches, and Sao Paulo didn’t gain a single victory away (one draw and three defeats). If we take into account all the matches of the tournament, then the result will also be weak. Corinthians failed to win in five out of seven league games, and São Paulo didn’t feel the taste of victory in all seven matches. The teams have a high percentage of draws. Corinthians shared points in 43% of games (6th place), and São Paulo did it in 57% (2nd result). There is a feeling that the teams will share points in the upcoming game.
Prediction for the match: Draw
