21 rounds of the Brasileirão have already passed. 17 to go. Quite irregular, Atlético is in seventh place, with 32 points. There are 13 points for leader Palmeiras, the team’s tormentor in Libertadores. The scenario for achieving leadership is not at all favorable.

According to the website “Probibilidades no Futebol”, from the mathematics department of UFMG, today, Galo has only a 0.29% chance of being the champion.

“He would have to win every game, and even then, it wouldn’t depend on him alone. There’s not much to do. It’s possible, but a lot has to happen.”
–
– There are 13 points for Palmeiras. Palmeiras would have to start losing too. If Palmeiras maintains its performance, it will reach 81, 82 points. Atlético would have to add 49, 50 of 51 points to equal – analyzes professor Gilcione Costa, from “Probabilities in Football”.

– As long as there is a mathematical chance, anything is possible. People trust God. There are 17 games as finals. We only have the Brazilian to play. Let’s give life. To, God willing, get as many points as possible and do the math in the end – says Hulk.

Today, Atlético is one point away from the G-6. There are five from the G-4 (right spot in the group stage). And the G-6 can still be scaled up. The mathematical odds, thinking about G-6, are 29.8%.
–
– You’re in the fight. A safety score would be about 60 points, which would give a 98% chance of securing G-6. I would need 28 more out of 51. And that could change a lot if Palmeiras or Flamengo win Libertadores, or Flamengo wins Brazil’s Cup – emphasizes Gilcione Costa.

To fight for the spot in Libertadores, the mathematician highlights that Atlético needs to improve its performance as home team.
–
– It is necessary to resume the sequence of victories, at least the performance as home team. Today, Atlético is the 10th best home team, with 54%, a poor performance for a cheering team. In 11 games, they won five and there were three draws and three defeats.
