Is this the turning point?…

Following their victory over Confiança in the Copa do Brasil, Grêmio will take on Coritiba this Sunday (26).

This match is part of the 13th round of the competition.

The Tricolor is aiming for something still elusive in 2026: their first consecutive wins.

Another win would help alleviate the pressure on Luís Castro from the fans.

It would also snap their five-match winless streak in the Brasileirão.

This season, the Tricolor has only achieved back-to-back victories three times:

  • Grêmio 5 x 0 São Luiz (January 17) and Guarany de Bagé 0 x 2 Grêmio (January 21)

  • Grêmio 5 x 3 Botafogo (February 4) and Grêmio 1 x 0 Novo Hamburgo (February 7)

  • Grêmio 2 x 1 Atlético-MG (February 25) and Grêmio 3 x 0 Internacional (March 1)

The match is set to start at 4 PM (Brasília time) at the Arena.

Given Grêmio’s precarious position near the relegation zone, this clash has become a “final”.
