The Neo Química Arena hosts one of the Brasileirão's fiercest fixtures. Corinthians are seventh on 32 points with the tighter defence of the two, twenty conceded in twenty-two rounds, and a home record of twelve scored and eight conceded in eleven games. Cruzeiro are fifth, a point ahead, producing more but conceding just as much: thirty scored and thirty-one conceded. The last five head-to-heads produced very few goals, with a 1-1, two 1-0s, a goalless draw and a single 3-0. The Brazilian league runs at 2.57 goals per game. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one. The data and assessments here are provided for information and statistical purposes.
