Today's game between Sao Paulo and Coritiba will kick-off at Aug 15, 2026, 8:00 PM.
TV channel and live stream options for Sao Paulo vs Coritiba are listed below. The match is available to watch live via Fanatiz and Premiere.
Sao Paulo host Coritiba in a Serie A fixture that neither side can afford to treat lightly, with both clubs sitting in the bottom half of the table and points becoming increasingly precious as the season progresses.
Dorival Junior's Sao Paulo side have struggled for momentum in recent weeks. A 2-1 defeat to Gremio in their last league outing followed an earlier draw with Flamengo, and the pressure is building on a squad that has been splitting its attention between Serie A and Copa Sudamericana.
Coritiba arrive in slightly better shape by comparison, at least in terms of their most recent result. Fernando Seabra's side beat Chapecoense AF 2-1 in their last Serie A match, a result that gave the club some breathing room after a difficult run.
The visitors sit 10th in the Serie A standings, one place above Sao Paulo in 12th. A win on the road would give Coritiba a genuine foothold in the top half and put further distance between themselves and the clubs below.
For Sao Paulo, this is a match where home advantage needs to count. The Copa Sudamericana commitments have added strain to the squad, and a draw with Bolivar midweek means Dorival Junior must now manage both fatigue and form.
Both teams know what is at stake. A defeat for either side would leave them looking nervously over their shoulders rather than upward at the top half.
Here is everything you need to know about where to watch Sao Paulo vs Coritiba, including TV channel and live stream options, kick-off time, and the latest team news.
