America MG Preview – Can America open their account?
Last week proved to be an unhappy return to the Brazilian top flight for Sunday’s hosts, America MG, as they slipped to a 1-0 loss away at Athletico PR and were then held to a 0-0 draw at home by Serie C outfit, Criciuma, in the Copa do Brasil.
America MG will therefore be keen to open their account in this opening home fixture of the new Serie A season against Corinthians but it could be a tough assignment for the hosts if results last time out in the Brazilian top flight are anything to go by.
America had managed to win just two of their final 15 matches of the 2018 season which contributed to their relegation from the domestic top flight and the hosts have also failed to beat Corinthians in each of their previous three meetings on home soil.
Corinthians Preview – Can Corinthians improve on domestic front?
Although they’ve posted recent back-to-back wins in the Copa Sudamericana with victories against Sport Huancayo and River Plate, by emphatic 5-0 and 4-0 margins respectively, Sunday’s visitors, Corinthians, have suffered early setbacks on the domestic front.
Corinthians were handed a 1-0 defeat at home by Atletico GO and then lost again to the same opponents in the Copa do Brasil by a 2-0 margin, so they’ll be keen to set the record straight against the Serie A newcomers on Sunday.
Overall, Corinthians have failed to win any of their last six matches in Serie A, while away from home, the visitors have lost four of their last five on the road but the visitors stand a decent chance of getting something from this trip.
