The team’s success rate stands at 65.92%, with a positive goal difference of 66.
The first match took place on August 27, 2023, when Atlético beat Santos 2–0 in the Brazilian Championship, with two goals from Paulinho. Since then, Arena MRV has become the stage for big wins, historic campaigns, and memorable nights for the Massa.


Out of those 89 matches, Galo left the field unbeaten in 76 games, the equivalent of 85.4% of the matches played at the stadium.
The team’s attacking numbers also stand out. They have scored 148 goals, an average of 1.66 goals per match, while conceding 82, an average of 0.92 per game.
In 2026, the record remains positive. As of the most recent update, there have been 22 matches, 11 wins, ten draws, and only one loss, with 33 goals scored and 22 conceded.
