Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the Brazilian Série A match.
Both clubs currently sit in the upper half of the Serie A standings, though their early-season performances have been somewhat erratic. Corinthians have picked up both wins and losses in the opening rounds, but they remain formidable on home soil. Fluminense, in contrast, have struggled away from home and have offered little attacking threat on the road.
Corinthians
Corinthians have been dominant at home. Since 2 June 2024, they have lost just once in 34 matches across all competitions. Only three of those fixtures featured fewer than 1.5 Total Goals. The team boasts several attacking options — Memphis Depay and Yuri Alberto both recorded a goal and an assist in the 3:0 victory over CR Vasco da Gama.
Fluminense
Fluminense continue to falter away from home. They have registered only one win in their last four away games, scoring just once during that run. Their recent record against Corinthians is also poor, with just one victory in their last seven meetings and 13 goals conceded over that span.
Corinthians vs Fluminense Prediction
Corinthians are reliable at home, while Fluminense remain ineffective on the road, especially in front of goal. The home side are often involved in matches with multiple goals and have scored against Fluminense in five of their last seven encounters. A defeat for Corinthians seems unlikely, and the match should see at least two goals scored.
