All statistics correct as of 09:24, 29 November 2016 (UTC).

The 2016 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A is the 60th season of the Série A, the top level of professional football in Brazil, and the 13th edition in a double round-robin since its establishment in 2003. The season began on 15 May 2016 and is scheduled to end on 11 December 2016. Fixtures for the 2016 season were announced on 25 April 2016.[1] Palmeiras won the title, their ninth overall.

Corinthians come in as the defending champions having won the title in the last season. Botafogo, Vitória, Santa Cruz and América Mineiro have entered as the four promoted teams from the 2015 Série B.

Format

For the fourteenth consecutive season, the tournament is being played in a double round-robin system. The team with most number of points at the end of the season will be declared champion. The bottom four teams will be relegated and will play in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B in the 2017 season.

International qualification

The Série A will serve as a qualifier to CONMEBOL's 2017 Copa Libertadores. The top-three teams in the standings will qualify to the Second Stage of the competition, while from the fourth to sixth place in the standings will qualify to the First Stage.

And this change also impacts on the Copa Sudamericana, whose vacancies are again to be distributed in the stockmarket enot more by Copa do Brasil.

Tiebreakers

In case of a tie on points between two or more clubs, tiebreakers are applied in the following order:[2]

  1. Number of wins;
  2. Goal difference;
  3. Goals pro;
  4. Head to Head;
  5. Fewer red cards;
  6. Less number of yellow cards;
  7. Draw.

With respect to the fourth criterion (direct confrontation), it is considered the result of the combined game, or the result of 180 minutes. Staying tie, the tie will be made by the greatest number of goals scored in the opponent's field. The fourth criterion is not considered in the case of a tie between more than two clubs.[2]

Location of teams in 2016 Série A

Twenty teams will compete in the league – the top sixteen teams from the previous season, as well as four teams promoted from the Série B.

Botafogo became the first club to be promoted after a 1–0 win against Luverdense on 10 November 2015 meant they were guaranteed an automatic place.[3][4] They return to the League after only a season's absence.[5] Vitória became the second club to be promoted, after a 3-0 win with Luverdense. They return to the League after only a season's absence. Santa Cruz became the third club to be promoted, after 3-0 win with Mogi Mirim. They play Brasileirão for the first time since the 2006 season. América Mineiro became the fourth and final club to be promoted, following a 1–1 draw over Ceará meant they finished above them on points difference and secured the automatic spot.[6]

The four promoted clubs replace Avaí, Vasco da Gama, Goiás and Joinville. At the end of the season it can be noted that for the third consecutive year, the Rio de Janeiro city has not had its four representatives in the first division, largely due to the inconsistent performance of Vasco da Gama and Botafogo, who alternated in relegation in recent seasons.

Stadia and locations

The three clubs based in Rio de Janeiro, Botafogo, Flamengo and Fluminense won't be able to play their home matches in Maracanã or Engenhão Stadiums due to the preparation of these venues for the Olympic Games that were held in the city in August.[7] The clubs are likely to use other stadiums for their home matches. Other stadiums to be used include Arena das Dunas, Arena Fonte Nova, Arena Pernambuco, Kléber Andrade, Mané Garrincha, Mário Helênio, Pacaembu, and Raulino de Oliveira.
