Corinthians vs Cuiabá Prediction: The Timão must win

Jair Ventura, Álvaro Pacheco, Cuca and Fernando Diniz. Four coaches left their clubs in two rounds due to poor results in the toughest of all leagues, the Brasileirão. The Brasileirão is a highly demanding competition for all players, coaches, and referees. António Oliveira, the Corinthians coach, is also in danger, and any result other than a win against Cuiabá will probably cause his departure. In 18th place, in the relegation zone, Corinthians must win.

Corinthians

The Paulistas miraculously drew at Athletico-PR with a goal from Cacá in the 92nd minute. Despite not playing well, Corinthians was the first visiting team to pick up a point at the Ligga Arena, so the result should be considered positive. However, one point didn't get the team out of the relegation zone. In eleven matches, the team has won just once, drawn five times, and lost another five. Victories are needed to get out of the Z4, and against Cuiabá, three points are a must.

Cuiabá

The Golden Dorado drew at home to Atlético Goianiense, disappointing the fans, who were expecting a victory after two magnificent straight wins against Fortaleza and São Paulo. The Goianos showed up at the Arena Pantanal very confident and taking control of the game, which surprised everyone. The unexpected departure of coach Jair Ventura on the eve of the match with Cuiabá didn't stop the Dragon from playing with character and a will to win. It wasn't until the end that the home side created some dangerous goal-scoring chances and could have scored through Eliel. The Mato-Grossenses looked tired, and the visitors were always quicker.

Expert Betting Tips

The last-minute draw against Athletico Paranaense was morale-boosting for Corinthians, who showed fighting spirit until the end. Cuiába failed to continue its good momentum and drew at home to Atlético Goianiense in a poor game for the Golden Dorado. Corinthians, playing at home, is the favorite, even with massive pressure on the players. The Paulistas know the danger their opponents can create on the counter-attack. Cuiabá won at the Morumbi against São Paulo, and António Oliveira, Corinthians' Portuguese coach, is familiar with how the team coached by Petit, a compatriot, plays. I will bet on Corinthians winning, which will have its fans behind its back.
