Mirassol v Remo: relegation rivals target a vital lift | OneFootball

Mirassol host Remo in the Brasileirão on Wednesday, 29 July 2026 at the Maião, with both sides in the bottom four and desperate for a survival boost.

Mirassol and Remo drew 2-2 in February, and with one point separating them in the table, the margins look tight again.

Mirassol have built some momentum, beating Grêmio 2-1 before a 1-1 draw at Vasco da Gama. Leão Azul responded to a 3-0 defeat at Corinthians with a 2-0 home win over Vitória.

The hosts are without suspended goalkeeper Walter, while Alex Muralha, António Neto and Negueba are injured. Leão Azul list centre-back Duplexe Tchamba as injured.

Mirassol's league profile points to width. They have delivered 302 open-play crosses at 18.54% accuracy and have yet to score from a set piece, while averaging 1.1 goals for and 1.4 against per game with just one clean sheet. Leão Azul have conceded 32 league goals, including 21 away, so their defence may be stretched if the hosts find delivery from wide areas.

In the standings, Mirassol sit on 20 points in 19th and Leão Azul on 21 in 18th. A home win would take the hosts above their visitors and could move them out of the relegation places. An away victory would lift Leão Azul to 24 points and could also pull them clear of the bottom four.
