Five points in five matches point to a struggling Corinthians side, and after winning just one of their opening five Serie A matches, they will hope to change the script when Sport Recife visit. Corinthians are placed 11th, while Sport Recife are 15th with four points. Last season, Corinthians had low returns, finishing 12th and they were expected to hit the right stride this time but so far they’ve struggled. They go to this game winless in their last four matches, failing to score in two, though losing just one. In the last seven matches across all competitions, Corinthians have one win and have particularly been low scorers – in none of these matches have they managed more than one goal. Only one of the seven matches has produced over 2.5 goals, with Corinthians scoring just three goals in the process. It hasn’t been any kinder for them playing at home; Corinthians have lost each of the last three there.

Sport Recife are also not having the best of starts to the campaign; in their opening five matches, they’ve already lost three. Their most recent game ended in a 1-0 loss to newly promoted Juventude, as they failed to make it two wins in a row, having earlier beaten struggling Gremio. In their last four matches, Sport Recife have lost three matches, and failed to score in those three games, while their 1-0 win over Gremio remains their only clean sheet in the season. In their opening game, Sport Recife drew 2-2 with Internacional, and that remains their only game to have produced over 2.5 goals.
