Vitória in 2013 and Sport in 2015 reached 59 points and occupied first place in this ranking. With the triumph against the Jaconeros, Fortaleza reaches 60 points, with still six rounds of the Brasileirão to play. Laion occupied four positions in the top 6 of the ranking, but none were the largest.

In addition to the historic brand, Leão do Pici still has a taboo against Juventude. The last time the Rio Grande do Sul team triumphed over the Ceará team was in 2009, when they faced each other in the Serie B of the Brazilian Championship. Since then the teams have followed the same path ten times, with five Italian victories and five draws.
After three games without leaving the field with a positive result, the Tricolore got back on track and achieved another victory in the Brasileirão. Botafogo is just four points away and Palmeiras is one, respectively leader and second in the national competition. However, the top two teams still play in the group and this difference could change.
The next match for the team coached by Vojvoda in the tournament is scheduled for next Saturday (9th) at 7pm, at the Arena Castelão. Leão do Pici hosts Vasco for the 33rd round of the Brazilian Championship.
