After missing an opportunity to pad their lead in fourth place of the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A, Corinthians will wrap up the month of November with a match against Athletico Paranaense on Sunday from Corinthians Arena.
Timao conceded a goal early and late versus Ceara this week, losing 2-1 as they are just a point above Fortaleza and Bragantino for the final position in the 2022 Copa Libertadores group stage, while the reigning Copa Sudamericana champions drew 0-0 with Sao Paulo on Wednesday in their first match since that cup triumph.
We say: Corinthians 1-0 Athletico Paranaense

Atletico Mineiro can move a step closer to claiming only their second Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A title when they host Fluminense on Sunday from Minerao.
The club from Belo Horizonte are unbeaten in six successive fixtures and currently hold an eight-point cushion at the top of the table, while Fluminense benefitted from an early penalty kick on Wednesday to blank Internacional 1-0.
We say: Atletico Mineiro 2-0 Fluminense
To win the Brasileiro Serie A, you have to show consistency throughout the year, and that is something that Atletico have demonstrated during this campaign, so expect to see them come out very determined to pick up another win in their quest for that long-awaited league title.

Santos can increase their chances of finishing in the top half of the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A standings when they travel to Estadio Jose Pinheiro Borda in Porto Alegre to face Internacional on Sunday.
Colorado have lost three consecutive league matches and are ninth in the table with three games remaining, two points above Santos, who won at home by a 2-0 score for the third straight time, defeating Fortaleza.
We say: Internacional 2-0 Santos
Even though only two points currently separate these two clubs in the standings, Inter are the superior side who can move the ball up the field quicker and technically are more assertive both on the ball and in the final third.
