Boca Juniors vs Corinthians Predictions

  • Six of the eight first-leg games in the round of 16 produced under 2.5 goals.
  • The last seven H2H meetings across the last decade produced two or fewer goals.
  • Four of Corinthians’ last five away games produced under 2.5 total goals.

Clash of the Copa Libertadores titans

With seven Copa Libertadores crowns between these sides, neither are here to simply make up the numbers and neither will want to give an inch as was shown in the tense 0-0 draw in the first-leg. Corinthians contributed just one Copa Libertadores trophy to the mix, although their sole success (2012) was more recent than Boca Juniors 2007 triumph.

The story of the round of 16 thus far has been tight and tense affairs, with six of the eight first leg encounters producing under 2.5 total goals. With so much at stake, it would come as little surprise if a similar outcome was seen in this encounter between giants of both Brazil and Argentina.

History suggests another tight encounter

Looking across the seven encounters between these two great clubs over the last decade paints a picture of an often hard-fought encounter. 

All of those games produced under 2.5 total goals while over half were goalless at half-time, this is also the third occasion that Boca met Corinthians in a Copa Libertadores round of 16 clash, with the second leg ending 1-1 in both previous occasions, a scoreline that we will be backing again here. What happens after that is anyone’s guess!
