Red Bull Bragantino, the only side to win their first two games of the new Brazilian Serie A season, take their 100% record to Neo Quimica Arena on Thursday (23:00 GMT, live on Betfred.com), where hosts Corinthians, who lost 2-1 at home to Bahia in the opening round of fixtures and haven’t played a league match since, lie in wait.

Below are my Corinthians vs RB Bragantino predictions, alongside team news and match odds.

Corinthians vs RB Bragantino Stats

  • RBB didn't play out a single 0-0 in Serie A last season
  • Matheus Fernandes (RBB) has shot five times across his first two league apps this year (three, two)
  • RBB have won the last three H2Hs

Bet Builder - Over 0.5 Total Goals & Matheus Fernandes (RBB) 2+ Total Shots @ 11/4

None of Corinthians’ last 10 games have finished goalless, and only three of their 38 league matches last season ended 0-0.

Bragantino, meanwhile, didn’t experience a single goalless stalemate in the 2025 Serie A.

Today's Football Fixtures

Visiting midfielder Matheus Fernandes, meanwhile, has shot five times across his first couple of league appearances this year, recording three efforts against Coritiba and two against Atletico Mineiro.

Draw No Bet - Red Bull Bragantino @ 13/8

Bragantino have had Corinthians’ number in the last few head-to-heads, winning both Serie A meetings 2-1 last year before claiming a 3-0 victory in the Paulista last month.

Massa Bruta are unbeaten in nine games across all competitions this calendar year, while Corinthians have lost three of their nine (W4, D2).

Despite going 1-0 up in the 12th minute of their opening-round match against Bahia on January 28, Corinthians still fell to a 2-1 defeat on home soil, and only five clubs picked up fewer points at home last season than Timao (30).

At 13/8, I like the insurance of the visitors in the Draw No Bet market, meaning that if the contest ends level, your stake will be returned.
