May 14th features a match where Internacional will host Corinthians at Estádio José Pinheiro Borda in a Serie A match. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. In their last match, 9th placed Internacional, recorded a 1-1 draw against Juventude. Vitão struck first for Internacional in the 47th minute on a feed from Carlos De Pena, then Oscar Ruiz tied it up for Juventude in the 3rd minute of the second half’s stoppage time earning Juventude at least a draw. Internacional is looking for direction having 2 win and 1 losses in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 1st placed Corinthians, recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Bragantino. Renato Augusto scored the first goal for Corinthians in the 55th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Bragantino was frustrated by Corinthians’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Corinthians ended the match with the shutout victory. Corinthians should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 2 draws each.
Corinthians’s top weapon lately has been Róger Guedes, who has three goals in the last 5 matches. Alexandre has been the most prolific scorer on Internacional in his last five matches with 2 goals.
