São Paulo is betting on its home strength this season to extend its unbeaten streak in the match against Grêmio, scheduled for this Wednesday. The game kicks off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Morumbis, for the third round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.
São Paulo has turned Morumbis into its fortress at the start of this year. After a year full of difficulties, the Tricolor needed to regain its home strength, which has been happening in 2026.
At Morumbis, São Paulo has lived up to its nickname of “sovereign.” In five matches played at home, the team led by Hernán Crespo has racked up four wins and suffered only one defeat, which represents an 80% success rate. Nine goals scored and five conceded.
In addition to showing strength on the field, the fans have also been increasing their presence in the Morumbis stands. After a discouraging start, supporters have become excited again by the positive results and have started a streak of good crowds at the stadium.
In the comeback win over Flamengo, for example, more than 27,000 people were in attendance. Against Santos, the best attendance of the year so far, with 49,605 fans. Meanwhile, last weekend, more than 35,000 people were at Morumbis.
“For us, it’s always special to play alongside our fans. It’s an extra support we have there. We’ll keep fighting, doing our best, to get the wins,” said midfielder Marcos Antônio to SPFC Play.
São Paulo can also extend an unbeaten streak that began on January 28 and has already lasted four matches. The Tricolor has victories over Flamengo (Brasileirão), Primavera and Santos (Paulista), as well as a draw against Santos in Série A.
For this, São Paulo counts on an important trump card. The São Paulo team hasn’t lost to Grêmio at home in 13 years. Since then, São Paulo has hosted Grêmio 12 more times at the stadium and has a good record, with six wins and six draws.
“It’s important to stay calm on the field, to know the right moments. We won’t always be ahead on the scoreboard, but we have to keep calm and always look for a positive result. We know how tough this game will be, but we’re very focused and we’re going for the win,” projected Marcos Antônio.
The last time São Paulo reached an unbeaten streak of five matches was in August 2025, when it collected two wins and three draws between the Campeonato Brasileiro and Libertadores.
São Paulo has one win and one draw in the current edition of the Campeonato Brasileiro. The Tricolor paulista has four points and shares fifth place in the table with Bahia.
