Why Bet on Corinthians?
Corinthians have had an extremely disappointing start to the 2024 Brasileirão season. The team is currently in the relegation zone after three matches, with a record of zero wins, one draw, and two losses.
What is more alarming, the Coringao has not scored a single goal so far. Their attacking problems were evident in the opening match, where they failed to defeat Atlético Mineiro and ended in a 0-0 draw. Things only got worse in the next game against Juventude, as Corinthians succumbed to a 0-2 defeat.
The nadir came in the Paulistas’ last match, where they suffered another 0-1 defeat at home to Bragantino. Unless Corinthians can fix their offensive problems quickly, they are in danger of falling into a relegation battle this season.
Why Bet on Fluminense?
Fluminense’s start to the season can best be described as balanced. With one win, one draw, and one defeat in their first three matches, they currently occupy the tenth place with five goals scored and five conceded.
Manager Fernando Diniz seems to have instilled a more attack-oriented philosophy this season, as evidenced by the five goals scored already. This is a stark contrast to last season, where the team struggled to find the back of the net consistently. However, the defense has also looked shaky at times, having conceded five goals in just three games. Diniz will need to shore up the backline if Fluminense is to fight for a top-four spot this season.
The Flu is in an intriguing position ahead of this match against Corinthians. The attack looks promising but needs to be more clinical, while the defense has been unusually porous.
