Grêmio begin run-in at Remo with 10 matches left to escape drop | OneFootball

Grêmio return from the FIFA break inside the relegation zone and resume the Brasileirão on Wednesday 7 at Remo, who sit 19th, the first of 10 remaining fixtures to stave off the drop.

They are 17th on 29 points, the first team inside the bottom four. According to Globo.com, their chance of staying up is 34.09%, higher only than Remo and Chapecoense.

Despite reaching the Copa do Brasil semi-finals, which adds two dates to the calendar, the overriding aim is to avoid relegation. By his own projection, Renato Portaluppi believes at least five more wins are needed, roughly half of the run-in.

Two direct relegation clashes open the sequence, then Grêmio host Inter, currently 18th, at the Arena the following Sunday.

Among later six-pointers, they travel to Corinthians in round 37, then face Mirassol at home on the final day.
