Last round will define access and two relegations

A Series B of the Brazilian Championship reached its final round with fierce disputes both for access and permanence. The ten games of the 38th round will be played this Saturday (25th), all starting at 5pm, and only two of them will not influence the table definitions. While six teams compete for the last two spots in the elite, four others fight for two positions to avoid relegation to Series C.

At the top of the table, Youth It is new village they only depend on their strength to move up, but Atlético-GO, Novorizontino, Mirassol and Sport also reach the final round with chances. Vitória (72) and Criciúma (64) have already guaranteed access to Series A. The Bahian team is already an anticipated champion, while the Santa Catarina team seeks to confirm second place.

Juventude, third place with 62 points, plays at the Estádio Presidente Vargas, in Fortaleza (CE), against Ceará, who has 50 points and only meets the table. Vila Nova, fourth with 61 points, goes to Natal (RN), in Frasqueirão, to face bottom team (20th) ABC, which will not even have coach Argel Fuchs. He left the club in the middle of the week.

Outside the G-4, Atlético-GO (61) receives Guarani in Goiânia (GO), which no longer has a chance of access. Following the table, Novorizontino (60) appears, which hosts Criciúma; Mirassol (60) who plays away against the threatened Tombense and Sport (60) who receives the threatened Sampaio Corrêa in Recife (PE).

On the opposite side, Sampaio Corrêa and Ponte Preta also don’t need a combination if they win, but Tombense It is Chapecoense they also seek permanence. Londrina (28) and ABC (25) are already relegated.

Sampaio Corrêa, with 39 points, although it depends only on itself to remain in Series B, will play away. Same situation as Ponte Preta, also with 39, but which receives CRB in Campinas, just fulfilling the schedule. Tombense has 37, the same number as Chapecoense, which hosts leader Vitória, promising to go with a mixed team to Chapecó (SC). Only the duels between Avaí and Ituano and between Botafogo and Londrina will not influence the definitions.
