Palmeiras was champion, reversing more than the Brasileirão leader's current advantage
Palmeiras has one more round to reduce Botafogo's advantage at the top of the Brasileirão and overtake Grêmio with seven points behind Carioca. The mission is still very complicated, but the club can count on the latest achievement to believe in winning another national cup. In 2018, Verdão was six points below the lead and finished first in the table.
