Grêmio and Chapecoense Prepare for Clash in 2026 Brasileirão
Grêmio faces Chapecoense on Sunday (30) at the Arena do Grêmio, with kickoff scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Brasília time. This match marks the 25th round of the 2026 Brasileirão, and Rodrigo José Pereira de Lima from Pernambuco will serve as the referee.
As of Sunday, Grêmio occupies the 15th position in the standings with 25 points and is looking to recover from two consecutive losses. The team’s home record includes six wins—accounting for all their victories in the current Brasileirão—three draws, and two losses.
Conversely, Chapecoense comes into this match after a victory that ended a disappointing 21-round winless streak. The team, currently in last place with just 14 points, has yet to secure a win in away matches, having recorded three draws and eight defeats.
In Grêmio’s lineup, the focus shifts away from the upcoming Gre-Nal in the Copa do Brasil. Coach Luís Castro will not have Diego Caito, who is sidelined with a shoulder injury, and Noriega, who is suspended. Notably, Kannemann and Carlos Vinícius will start on the bench.
On the Chapecoense side, Rafael Lacerda will also navigate personnel issues, as midfielder Camilo is unavailable due to suspension—having previously faced the club that loaned him to Chapecoense. Additionally, Bruno Tubarão remains out with a right leg injury.
