Corinthians vs RB Bragantino Prediction: Huge pressure on both teams

Their meeting on Wednesday will make it 3 times the teams will be meeting in August, but this time around only one team will advance to the quarterfinals of the Copa Sudamericana. Their first leg encounter ended in a 2-1 victory to Corinthians but this is not the time to relax as the pressure is still very heavy on both teams. Just like the first leg, we believe both teams will find the net. Please see the carefully prepared tips.

Corinthians are having a terrible season, they are in 16th place in the domestic league with only 4 wins from the 23 games played in the league. However, they continue to advance in the Copa Sudamericana and they are one step away from the Quarterfinals. In their first leg encounter, Corinthians were clinical as they converted two early chances into goals and they already had a 2-goal lead in the 14th minute. Bragantino got one goal back in the 56th minute but that was it as the game finally ended in a 1-2 victory for Corinthians. In their domestic league, they managed to hold Fluminense to a goalless draw in their most recent league game.

Bragantino continues to grapple with inconsistencies as they are without a win in their last 7 games across all competitions. In their first leg encounter against Corinthians, Bragantino had a good game but it was not enough to give them a point as the game ended in a 1-2 defeat. They also lost to Fortaleza in their most recent league which raises doubt about their ability to overturn a goal deficit as they take on Corinthians at the Neo Quimica Arena. 

A closer look at their last 20 encounters showed 8 wins for Corinthians, 8 wins for Bragantino, and 4 draws. 

The pressure is high on both teams, Bragantino is seeking to overturn a goal deficit while Corinthians is aiming to uphold their lead. We witnessed an intense show of strength in their first leg encounter and we can expect the same here on Wednesday. Corinthians is without a clean sheet in their last 6 encounters and we believe that it will continue here as both teams will find the net at 2.14 odds. Corinthians will not lose, not at their home ground and we can also go for a win or draw and a total of over 1.5 goals for Corinthians.
