Timão must make up for a two-goal deficit against Atlético-MG in the Copa do Brasil
Corinthians decides its fate once again in a competition played in front of its fans at the Neo Química Arena. This Wednesday (31), the team led by Vanderlei Luxemburgo tries to overturn the two-goal deficit against Atlético-MG, for the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil.
Since Corinthians’ home was inaugurated in 2014, Team do Povo has played 57 elimination matches in Itaquera, adding up 30 wins, 17 draws and 10 losses between home and away and single matches in the knockout format, taking advantage of the 62 %.
Of those 57 matches, 26 were knockout matches, and the club has a 69% success rate in this type of Arena duel, with 16 wins, six draws and four losses. 19 times Timão took the stage and three times the team was eliminated when deciding at home. Timão recently beat Remo in regular time 2-0 in the Copa do Brasil and progressed on penalties.
Despite the favorable record that decided the playoffs at home, Corinthians had a hard time overcoming Galo playing at home. The miners have won the last three clashes played at the Neo Química Arena
Fiel’s support to help the club overturn the deficit will begin even before the kick-off, as organized supporters will receive the Corinthians bus upon arrival at the Corinthian stadium.
