See Santos’ relegation chances after matchday 33 of the Brasileirão | OneFootball

Santos found itself in even more trouble in the Brazilian Championship after the end of the 33rd round. The Peixe saw its chances of relegation increase once again following the 3-2 defeat to Flamengo last Sunday at Maracanã.

After the loss to Palmeiras, Santos entered the relegation zone of Série A and had a 50.5% chance of going down. As of this Monday, that number has been updated and suffered a considerable increase, rising by nine percentage points and reaching 59.4% probability of relegation. The data comes from UFMG (Federal University of Minas Gerais).

The results of the 33rd round were also not extremely favorable for Santos, but they could have been worse. In 16th place, Vitória only drew with Botafogo, as did Internacional, who sits in 15th and drew with Bahia after taking a 2-0 lead.

Now in the Z4, Santos sits in 17th place, with 33 points. Direct rival Juventude beat Vasco and reached 32 points, closing in on Peixe. Fortaleza, meanwhile, drew with Grêmio, moving up to 30 points.

It’s worth noting that Santos has one game in hand. The derby against Palmeiras, from the 13th round, will be played this Saturday. Kickoff is at 9 p.m. (Brasília time), at Vila Belmiro.

At the moment, the four clubs with the highest chances of relegation in the Brasileirão are those in the relegation zone. Sport is already relegated, while Fortaleza (92.6%), Juventude (76.8%), and Santos (59.4%) lead the list of likely relegation candidates, followed by Vitória (51.9%) and Internacional (16.9%).

The Alvinegro Praiano will now have a sequence of two home games to try to recover in the Brasileirão and avoid relegation, which would be the second in its history.
