Remo slump in second half puts Série A hopes at risk; see the numbers | OneFootball

Remo is entering the final stretch of the Brazilian Championship Série A with an increasingly smaller safety margin. In nine matches in the second half of the season, Leão earned only five of the 27 points available, with one win, two draws, and six defeats.

A 18.5% return turned what was supposed to be a campaign built on consistency into a fight for survival in the Brasileirão. The only victory came right at the start of the second half of the season. On July 26, Remo beat Vitória 2-0 at Mangueirão.

Since then, the blue-and-white side has not won again in the Brasileirão. In the next eight matches, there were two draws and six defeats, just two points from a possible 24. That run explains the level of concern at Baenão.

The problem is not concentrated in one isolated result, but in a string of results against different opponents that has kept the club from Pará far from a consistent recovery in the Brasileirão.

Five points in nine matches

The attack has still managed to find the net in most of the matches. Remo scored 11 goals in the second half of the season and got on the scoresheet in eight of the nine rounds. The difficulty lies in turning that output into points.

The defense offers an important explanation. The team conceded 15 goals in the period and was breached in eight matches. The only time it managed to finish a game without conceding was precisely in the win over Vitória.

Away from Belém, the problem gets worse

Away from home, the situation is even more worrying. In four matches in the second half of the season, Remo picked up just one point from a possible 12, in the draw with Internacional. It was the only time the team earned points away from Belém.

The 8.3% return away from home contrasts with the 26.7% in Belém, where Remo picked up four points in five matches. The difference matters because the remaining schedule will feature five home matches and five away.

Ten rounds to change the outlook

Remo will have 30 points left to play for until the end of the championship. The run begins on October 7 against Grêmio at Mangueirão. After that, Leão Azul will face Vasco away from home and host Red Bull Bragantino.

With 23 points, Leão Azul needs to raise its level to avoid greater pressure in the relegation battle. In the second half of the season, there were only five points from a possible 27, a scenario that leaves little room for a comeback.

The most worrying figure lies precisely in the projection for the final stretch. If Remo repeats in the last ten rounds the 18.5% return shown in the second half of the season, it will add very few points to its campaign.

For a team fighting to stay up, the outlook increases the risk of failing to react in time. With ten matches ahead, Remo needs to stop the negative run, while the cushion in the table shrinks with each round.
