Atlético-MG lead with 32 from 37. Corinthians now sit ahead of Flamengo on 28, having overtaken the Rio club this week after their elimination by Vitória.

Since 2020, Corinthians have recorded 24 wins in the competition, placing them second among this decade’s most successful sides and moving past Atlético-MG.

The last-16 draw will be held on 26 May. Before that, Fernando Diniz’s team visit Botafogo at Estádio Nilton Santos on Sunday at 16:00 in the 16th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.
