CORINTHIANS
The loss in the first leg seems to have affected the mood of Corinthianswho followed that result with a 1–1 draw against Avai en el Brasileirao. That result saw him distance himself even more from the top that he commands palm trees.
Offensive has been the team’s main recent problem, as they have failed to score more than one goal in eight of their last ten competitive games (excluding extra time), making this scoreboard look difficult to come back from.
The task seems titanic, given that “Timão” have not managed to win the 90-minute win in any of their four away appearances so far in this Copa Libertadores (Draw 3, lose 1).
Furthermore, they have only scored one goal while playing on opposition soil in the competition, so their chances of lifting the trophy for the first time since 2012 look very slim.
