Direct rivals in the Libertadores race, São Paulo and Bahia slip up

After defeating Flamengo last Wednesday (19) and watching Bahia lose to Fortaleza last Thursday (20), Fluminense entered the G-6 of the Brazilian Championship.

Besides these two results, the rest of the 34th round was favorable for the Tricolor. Corinthians also defeated São Paulo, a direct competitor for a spot in the Libertadores, 3-1 at the Neo Química Arena.

Thus, the Team of Warriors needs just one more victory to secure at least a spot in the Pre-Libertadores for the next season. With four rounds remaining, the gap is nine points out of 12 to be contested.

With the spot on track, the Tricolor faces Palmeiras (away), São Paulo (home), Grêmio (away), and Bahia (home) in the final matches of the Brasileirão.
