The final stretch of the Brasileirao 2023 season promises to be thrilling until the last second. With Botafogo’s recent downfall, several teams have joined the race for the title, and with three rounds left, up to six clubs have serious chances of being crowned champions.
Palmeiras are leading the standings after 35 matchdays, ahead of Flamengo only due to goal difference. The Fogao trail by just one point, and further behind are Atlético Mineiro, Gremio, and Bragantino, separated from the top by only a handful of points.
