Without major pretensions, Sport and Grêmio end, this Sunday (7), their participation in the 2025 Brazilian Championship. Already relegated, Leão receives Tricolor, on the Ilha do Retiro, at 4 p.m. (Brasilia time), for the last round of the competition. The Rio Grande do Sul club, however, has yet to confirm its place in the Copa Sudamericana.
In short, Sport is at the bottom of the competition, with 17 points. Grêmio is in 11th place, with 46 points.
Where to look?
The match between Sport and Grêmio will be broadcast on Premiere (pay-per-view).
How sport happens
Even if it no longer has any chance of leaving the Brazilian Championship at the bottom of the ladder, Sport can still improve its situation in the general decline of the competition. After all, at present, Leão has the same 17 points as América-RN from 2017. Therefore, if they do not score, they would find themselves tied with the second worst campaign in the history of the Brazilian Championship in terms of points collected – the worst is that of Chapecoense in 2021, with 15 points.
How does Grêmio arrive?
Having no chance of dreaming of a possible G8 to compete in the preliminary stages of the Copa Libertadores, Grêmio is still playing to confirm its place in the Copa Sudamericana. Tricolor are two points ahead of Santos, the first team outside the competition classification zone.
For Sunday’s match, coach Mano Menezes is without goalkeeper Volpi, who suffered a wrist problem. So, Grando will be the starter. In addition, Tricolor will not suspend Arthur and Dodi either. However, there will be the return of Carlos Vinicius and Amuzu, suspended in the last round.
