The Immortal Tricolor finds itself in Group B, alongside teams such as Caxias, Inter de Santa Maria, Monsoon, Novo Hamburgo, and Ypiranga.

With 43 Gauchão titles—just three fewer than their main rival—Grêmio is eager to regain the state supremacy they held from 2018 to 2024, when they claimed the championship seven times, a streak interrupted only last year by Inter.
This season, Grêmio will be led by Portuguese coach LuÃs Castro, who has taken over from Mano Menezes.
The club’s activity in the transfer market has been limited, with the only new additions being left-back Caio Paulista, Coach Castro, and Colombian forward José Enamorado.
However, winger Tetê, a product of the club’s academy, is on the verge of being announced as a new signing.
