Corinthians vs Atlético-MG
17:00 ET
 
Corinthians and Atlético-MG face off this Saturday, at 19h (Brasília time), at Neo Química Arena, in a game valid for the 21st round of the Brazilian Championship, with different goals.

In 11th position with 25 points, Timão tries to move away from the teams in the block at the bottom of the table and get closer to the front squad. Botafogo, currently in 17th place, has 20 points and one game less. Palmeiras, currently in sixth place, appears with 31 and also has a game less.

The Rooster, even with only one victory in the last five games, comes to the confrontation packed by the rout applied in Flamengo, by 4-0, and responsible for the dismissal of Domenec Torrent. A victory over Timão, added to a stumbling block from Inter, could give Jorge Sampaoli's team the lead.

Corinthians defends the taboo of never having lost to the Rooster at Neo Química Arena. In seven games, he won four times. The last defeat as principal was in 2013, in Pacaembu.
