Round 12 of the Brasileiro Serie A gets underway on Saturday when Athletico Paranaense and Corinthians square off at the Estádio Joaquim Américo Guimarães.
The Rubro-Negro will be looking to get one over the visitors, having failed to win the last eight meetings between the sides since November 2018.

This followed a thrilling 2-2 draw with America Mineiro at the Estádio Mineirão on June 11 which saw their three-match winning streak come to an end.
With 16 points from 11 matches, Wesley Carvalho’s side are currently ninth in the Serie A table, but could move into fifth place with all three points this weekend.
Meanwhile, Corinthians failed to find their feet last time out as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Cuiaba at the Neo Química Arena.
Vanderlei Luxemburgo’s men have now failed to win their last three matches, claiming one draw and losing twice, including a 3-0 defeat against Independiente in the Copa Libertadores on June 7.
Corinthians are currently 16th in the league standings, having picked up nine points from their 10 matches so far.
