Chapecoense and Remo occupy the bottom two spots in the 2026 Brasileirão Série A with 18 and 25 points respectively after 28-30 matches, leaving them with over 97% modeled probability of relegation to Série B. Grêmio on 31 points, Internacional and Corinthians on 32, and Mirassol on 33 remain in or near the Z4 danger zone, where recent results have sharpened pressure—most notably Corinthians’ 4-1 derby loss to Palmeiras. The promoted sides Chapecoense and Remo have struggled with poor goal difference and form, while mid-table clubs like Vasco, Vitória, and Botafogo still hold slim escape margins with eight rounds remaining. Key upcoming fixtures among the lower table sides will determine whether the battle stays confined to four or five teams or widens further.
