The Brasileirão Serie A continues to go by and the teams are already showing that they are reaching the top of their conditions; so, from now on we can expect a tournament full of emotions with high-voltage matches on each of the new match days that will be played.
Despite their defeat on matchday 15, Palmeiras continues to lead the standings; thanks to a three-point cushion over Corinthians, who also lost their match, and a five-point cushion over Atlético Mineiro and Paranaense, who are now their closest pursuers.
Little by little and without making much noise in the tournament, Atlético Paranaense has managed to sneak into the top three places in the table, with an extraordinary rebound in recent weeks where it has not known defeat. Atlético Mineiro continues in a very good moment of the season.
On the other side of the coin, we have Fortaleza and Juventude, two teams that, in 15 games played, seem not to have realized that the season has already started and, to recover from this terrible situation they are living, they have to make a radical change in their approach for each match.
