Overtaking will also occur if the Rio team draws and the São Paulo team loses.

Filipe Luis will have to overcome the difficulties posed by a team with 11 players absent. The team will replace the one game less amount it had as a debit on its account. According to FIFA data, Brasileirão will not play a round this weekend as the Brazilian team has two friendly matches scheduled. Alex Sandro and Danilo are in England with the team for games against Senegal and Tunisia.
