One of the matches of the 14th round of the Brazilian championship will be played on Friday at the Neo Química Arena in São Paulo, where the local Corinthians will host Vitória. Here is the prediction for this match from the team of experts at Dailysports.
Corinthians
"Timão" finished in 13th place last season, but it seems the necessary conclusions were not drawn. In the current campaign, Corinthians have started poorly and, after 13 matches, find themselves near the bottom of the standings. With 9 points, Corinthians are in the penultimate position on the table.
In their last match, Timão faced Palmeiras away and were defeated 0-2. The team has not won in the Brazilian championship since late April, recording five draws and four losses in their last nine matches. In six home games, Corinthians have managed only one victory, though they have lost just once.
Vitoria
The "Barra Lions" have not had a particularly successful start in the current Brazilian Serie A season, occupying 15th place in the standings with 12 points from 13 matches. Essentially, the team is fighting to retain its place in the top division, but Vitória's recent results are significantly better than those of their rivals.
In the last round, Vitória played at home against Atlético Paranaense and lost 0-1. However, in their last five matches, Vitória have secured three victories and suffered two losses. Away from home, Vitória has won just once in six matches, but that victory came in their most recent away game against Fluminense.
