Remo welcome Santos to the Estadio Evandro Almeida on Saturday evening for a Serie A Regular Season round 28 fixture, with the two clubs in sharply contrasting positions heading into the match.
Remo sit 19th in the 20-team table, firmly in the bottom two. They have won five, drawn eight and lost 14 of their 27 matches, accumulating 23 points. Their recent form makes for grim reading: four consecutive defeats and just one point taken from their last five matches.
Santos arrive in 10th place, described in the table as mid-table. Across 26 matches they have nine wins, eight draws and nine losses, leaving them on 35 points. The gap between the two sides currently stands at 12 points.
The visitors carry impressive momentum into the fixture. Santos have won three matches in a row and have collected 13 points from their last five outings. Their recent results include wins against Cruzeiro, Internacional and Corinthians, as well as a draw with Mirassol and a victory over Vasco da Gama.
Remo's last five results tell a different story. Defeats to Bahia, Flamengo, Coritiba and Fluminense surround a solitary draw with Internacional, a sequence that has deepened their difficulties at the foot of the Serie A table.
The head-to-head record from earlier in this campaign also favours the visitors. Santos defeated Remo 2-0 on 2 April 2026, the only previous meeting between the sides noted in the record.
With Remo on 23 points in 19th and Santos sitting comfortably on 35 in 10th, the stakes of Saturday night's contest are plain to see in the current Serie A standings.
