According to Globo.com, Atlético-MG and Cruzeiro top the Série A form table since Brazil's post-World Cup restart, each above 70%.
Atlético-MG have 71.43% from seven matches and Cruzeiro 70.83% from eight.
Both excel away, three wins in four on the road. Atlético also beat the leaders Palmeiras in round 20 of the Brasileirão.
Cruzeiro rotated at Corinthians last weekend, prioritising a decisive Libertadores tie with Flamengo on Wednesday, yet still won 2-1.
Atlético-MG remain unbeaten since the restart, as do Bahia and Flamengo. By contrast, Chapecoense, Grêmio and Vitória have each lost four times.
Chapecoense have the lowest return, three of 21 points, a 14.29% yield. São Paulo are winless, just three from 15 available.
