Corinthians vs America Mineiro Prediction and Betting Tips | July 15th 2023

Corinthians will host America Mineiro at the Neo Quimica Arena on Saturday in the second leg of the quarterfinals of the 2023 Copa do Brasil.

The home side have endured a rather difficult league campaign but remain hopeful of a positive Copa do Brasil campaign. They were beaten 1-0 in the first leg of the cup tie earlier this month but have since bounced back picking up wins over Atletico Mineiro and Universitario in the Brasileiro Serie A and Copa Sudamericana respectively.

Corinthians made it to the final of the Copa do Brasil last season before losing on penalties to Flamengo. They will be looking to go all the way this time around but must first overturn their first-leg result.

America MG have had an even more difficult league campaign than their opponents but now have a foot in the semifinals of the cup competition. They picked up a 1-0 win in the reverse fixture with team captain Juninho scoring the sole goal of the game at the half-hour mark.
