The Neo Química Arena will host another Paulista derby, always eagerly awaited by all Brazilian football fans. The rival teams have met 360 times, with Corinthians having the advantage with 133 wins against 112 for São Paulo. The Tricolor is in a good moment of the season and has beaten Corinthians in the last three clashes, but balance should prevail in the Majestic Derby.

The Timão let victory slip through its fingers against Atlético Goianiense after leading 2-0. Yuri Alberto scored both of the team's goals and may have regained confidence with his performance. Corinthians had to play an hour with ten players after Gustavo Henrique picked up his second yellow card when the Paulistas were leading 1-0. António Oliveira's team managed to increase the lead but failed to withstand the pressure from Atlético, who, despite missing many chances, equalized near the end through a penalty. The Timão is in 15th place with six points and needs a good result in the upcoming match against its rival.
São Paulo
The Tricolor dropped one position and now sits in 5th place after a 0-0 draw with Internacional. The game lacked excitement, and it always seemed that the teams were satisfied with the result without taking any risks. São Paulo extended its unbeaten streak with a point on the road, which is always a positive result in the Brasileirão. Zubeldía's side hasn't lost in 12 games, and confidence remains high. Winning the derby against Corinthians would be extraordinary, but a draw could also satisfy São Paulo.
Expert Betting Tips
São Paulo has been much better than Corinthians this season, but there is no clear favorite in a derby like this. The last few meetings have ended in victory for the Tricolor, so perhaps the club from the Morumbi neighborhood has a slightly better chance of winning. However, Corinthians plays at home, and its fans are very enthusiastic. I'm betting on a draw that might satisfy the teams and their managers.
