Preview
Corinthians and Cruzeiro face at Arena Corinthians, in a 2nd leg match for the Copa do Brasil (Finals), after the (1‑0) home win by Cruzeiro in the 1st leg match. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 4 wins in the last 4 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 26‑07‑2018, in a match for the Serie A, Corinthians won by (2‑0). The goals of the match were scored by Á. Romero (62' and 80' ) for Corinthians. The home advantage may play an important role in this match , since Corinthians presents significant differences between home and away results.

Analysis Corinthians

The home team comes to this 2nd leg match with a disadvantage of 1 goal, apart from the drawback of not having scored any away goals in the 1st leg. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 2 draws and 11 losses in away matches; against 8 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away loss against Santos by (1‑0). Corinthians has won 5, tied 3 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches. Goals have been frequent in their home matches, as 15 of the last 36 have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 24 out of 36 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 15 matches, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Despite Corinthians coming to this match from a defeat in the first clash against Cruzeiro, this was the only defeat in this competition in seven games, apart from the fact that the team will play at its stadium, where it won the three matches for the Brazilian Cup and suffered only two defeats for the Brazilian Serie A in a total of fifteen games played. It is worth remembering that the team arrives from defeat in the Paulista classic against Santos, however, most of the players were substitutes, aiming in this way to preserve the main players for the great final of the Brazilian Cup. Recalling that coach Jair Ventura will have to deal between the pursuit of the Brazilian Cup title and also worry about the team's situation in the Brazilian Serie A.

Confirmed Lineup: Cássio, Fagner, Danilo Avelar, Henrique, Léo Santos, Ralf, Gabriel Girotto, Jadson, Emerson Sheik, Jonathas, Ángel Romero.
Coach: F. Lázaro.

Analysis Cruzeiro

The away team comes to this 2nd leg match with an advantage of 1 goal, but has suffered 0 goals at home in the 1st leg. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 5 wins, 7 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 14 conceded. In their last match, for the Serie A, they got an away loss against Vasco da Gama by (2‑0). In the last 10 away matches Cruzeiro has won 2, tied 4 and lost 4. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 7 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Despite Cruzeiro coming to this second clash at an advantage, we can say that the title search is open. It is worth remembering that the team from Minas Gerais did not suffer losses and at the same time won in the great majority, counting the seven games it played for this competition. Despite this and having also won the three away games for this competition, Cruzeiro has been finding great difficulties to win away from home in the matches for the Serie A. Recalling that the team conquered only two wins in fifteen games played in this context. For this duel and after the away defeat against Vasco, where the team played with an alternative team also aiming at the final of the Brazilian Cup, coach Mano Menezes should put on the field the best players, even needing to react on this final stretch of the Brazilian Serie A if he still dreams of a vacancy, even if it is for pre-libertadores.

Confirmed Lineup: Fábio, Edílson, Dedé, Léo, Lucas Romero, Alejandro Cabral, Robinho, Henrique, Thiago Neves, Rafinha, Hernán Barcos.
Coach: N. Larcamón.
