CBF unveils Série B trophy 🏆, who’s still in title and promotion race | OneFootball

The CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation) announced this Tuesday the trophy and medals that will be awarded to the champion and runner-up of the Série B of the Brazilian Championship. With only two rounds remaining, six clubs still have a chance to win the title.

Coritiba leads the competition with 64 points, five more than Athletico-PR, who are in second place with 59. Remo appears in third, also with 59, while Chapecoense closes out the G4 with 58 points, the same as Criciúma and Goiás, who come right behind.

Coxa can secure their third Série B title this Saturday at 4:30 p.m. (Brasília time), if they beat Athletic at Couto Pereira. In case of a draw, the team will have to hope that Athletico-PR does not beat Ferroviária, who play on Sunday, also at 4:30 p.m., at Fonte Luminosa.

Check out the promotion chances

Coritiba is virtually guaranteed in Série A. Athletico-PR is in a strong position, while Chapecoense and Remo are currently ahead in the direct fight for the remaining spots. Criciúma and Goiás still have the strength for a final push, and Novorizontino is running as an outsider. CRB needs an unlikely combination of results.

In the next round, three of the four main contenders for promotion – Athletico-PR, Chapecoense, and Remo – play away from home. The team that could benefit from this is Criciúma, who will have the support of their fans against Botafogo-SP.

Highlight of the round goes to the clash between Goiás and Novorizontino, which could end the dream of the first division for one of the sides. CRB, who are on life support, host Vila Nova.
