On Sunday 16, the Alagoas side host Goiatuba in the Série D quarter-final second leg after a 0-0 first meeting. Itamar Schülle’s team need a simple home win to clinch promotion to Série C.

Botafogo-PB are eight unbeaten in Série C, six wins and two draws, and have climbed to third on 26 points after battling the drop earlier in the campaign. Remarkably, that sequence followed six straight defeats, with head coach Marcelo Fernandes kept in post.

Atlético-MG are the first Série A club on the list, eight unbeaten across the league, Copa do Brasil and Copa Sudamericana, five wins and three draws. Their last setback was a 1-0 loss at Corinthians on 24 May, in a domestic calendar that paused for a month during the World Cup.
