Prediction published on 20/05/2022, 15:21  by Daniel Ngulu in Football Predictions

The Neo Quimica Arena Arena will play host to the Sa Paulo derby as Brazilian giants Corinthians and Sao Paulo face off in the seventh week of the Serie A. Top spot is at stake here as these two meet. Going to the game, hosts Corinthians have 13 points at the league summit while Sao Paulo are third on 11 points. Corinthians take to this game an unbeaten run of seven matches; they are however coming from two straight draws, and have shared spoils in three of their last five games. Their most recent outing was an away game in Argentina in the Copa Libertadores where they drew 1-1 with Boca Juniors. Four of their last five matches have seen under 2.5 goals scored. At home, they’ve done well in the last 10 matches, going unbeaten in the run, with nine wins and a draw, as well as eight clean sheets.

Sao Paulo, just like their hosts here, have lost once in their opening six league matches. They are also coming from continental action, theirs being the Copa Sudamericana, where they beat Bolivian side Jorge Wilsterman 3-0. That marked a third straight win for Sao Paulo and a ninth unbeaten outing. They have three clean sheets in their last five matches and have scored two or more in their last three matches. However, three of their last five matches have produced under 2.5 goals. Away from home, Sao Paulo have registered just one win in five, but they are unbeaten in those five matches, and failed to score in one. They have three straight wins over Corinthians and will be looking to extend the same.
