Corinthians vs Fluminense Prediction and Betting Tips | September 15, 2022 

Corinthians will host Fluminense at the Neo Quimica Arena on Thursday night in the second leg of the Copa do Brasil semifinals.

The Timao have struggled in the league recently, rapidly losing ground in the standings, and will now turn their attention to the domestic cup this weekend. They played out a 2-2 draw in their first leg of the Copa semis last month.

Corinthians came from behind twice to draw level, with Roger Guedes ending his nine-game goal drought to score a late equaliser. They are three-time winners of the domestic cup, last lifting the trophy in 2009 after a 4-2 aggregate victory over Internacional in the final.

Fluminense, meanwhile, have had mixed results in the league recently, sitting nine points away from the top of the table and will hope for better luck in the Copa do Brasil. Goals from Ganso and Jhon Arias early in either half were not enough to secure a win in the first leg. The Tricolor will now need a result away from home.

The visitors' only Copa do Brasil title came in 2007, when they beat Figueirense Futebol Clube 2-1 on aggregate.
