Internacional hold off Corinthians fightback to end losing run
Internacional beat Corinthians 2-1 at Estádio Beira Rio in round 29 of the Brasileirão Série A, a result that lifted Eduardo Baptista's side off the foot of the table. Vitinho needed just one minute to put the hosts ahead, finishing from an Alan Patrick assist to settle the home crowd early.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
The scoreline held at 1-0 through to half-time, with Internacional seemingly content to sit in and absorb spells of Corinthians possession. Alan Patrick doubled the advantage in the 77th minute, turning provider Bruno Henrique's work into a second goal, before Andre pulled one back for Corinthians three minutes later from a Vitinho assist to set up a nervy finish.
Despite facing a side that controlled 72 per cent of possession and had 22 shots to Internacional's 17, Baptista's team found the net twice and defended their lead to the final whistle. The win snapped a run of poor home form for Internacional, while Corinthians, who had lost their previous five matches, slipped to another defeat on the road.
Alan Patrick was directly involved in both Internacional goals, scoring once and setting up Vitinho's opener, and finished with a rating of 8.69.
Corinthians dominated territory with 72 per cent of possession but could not turn that control into victory.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Internacional 41%, the draw 31%, Corinthians 28%. It finished Internacional 2–1 Corinthians.
Level sides, home ground holds off Corinthians' control of the ball — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Brasileirão Série A home advantage gives Internacional the lean. The draw at 31% is helped by a draw-heavy league.
Why Internacional in front?
Home ground, mostly. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1469 to 1506. Sides this close won 42.6% of 14,785 home games (draw 27.1%, visitors 30.3%). Brasileirão Série A home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to draws (26.9% vs 25.4% norm) and away wins (24.9% vs 30.0%). Brasileirão Série A homes won 48.2% of 4,458 games vs 44.6% across all 100,985 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 41%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Corinthians hold 13 more possession points (58 to 45 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, when the visitors held this control edge the home team's win rate fell to 39.8% across 5,463 games, from 43.9% when styles were level.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Corinthians win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.1%. These teams' recent games average 2.3 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.5% of 28,272. Brasileirão Série A runs draw-heavy, adding 1.5 points. The goals environment adds 1.3 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Corinthians have shed 79 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.1% of 9,575 such games vs 33.4% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Corinthians are winless in their last 10 visits to Internacional: 7 draws and 3 defeats, across 2 Copa Do Brasil games and 8 Brasileirão Série A games. Last recorded win: 31 July 2016 — Internacional 0–1 Corinthians. Latest visit: 2 August 2026 — Internacional 2–0 Corinthians. Across 5,768 historical matches involving visitors with at least five consecutive winless visits, those visitors won 20.3%, compared with 21.6% expected from the teams' strength ratings.
