The2016Campeonato Brasileiro Série A was the 60th season of theSérie A, thetop level of professional football in Brazil, and the 14th edition in a double round-robin since its establishment in 2003. The season began on 15 May 2016 and ended on 11 December 2016. Fixtures for the 2016 season were announced on 25 April 2016.[1]Palmeiras won the title, their ninth overall.
For the fourteenth consecutive season, the tournament was played in adouble round-robin system. The team with most points at the end of the season was declared champion. The bottom four teams were relegated and will play in theCampeonato Brasileiro Série B in the 2017 season.
Atlético Mineiro and Chapecoense did not play their last match due to theaccident involving 71 deaths (including 19 Chapecoense players) on 28 November 2016. Due to a lack of squad depth, both teams decided to forfeit the game resulting in Chapecoense finishing 11th and Atlético Mineiro finishing 4th.[2] Match officials declared a doubleW.O., as CBF refused to cancel the match.[3]
The Série A served as a qualifier toCONMEBOL's2017 Copa Libertadores. The top-three teams in the standings qualified to the Second Stage of the competition, while from the fourth to sixth place in the standings qualified to the First Stage.
And this change also impacts on theCopa Sudamericana, whose vacancies are again to be distributed in the stockmarket enot more byCopa do Brasil.
In case of a tie on points between two or more clubs, tiebreakers are applied in the following order:[4]
With respect to the fourth criterion (direct confrontation), it is considered the result of the combined game, or the result of 180 minutes. Staying tie, the tie will be made by the greatest number of goals scored in the opponent's field. The fourth criterion is not considered in the case of a tie between more than two clubs.[4]
Twenty teams competed in the league – the top sixteen teams from the previous season, as well as four teams promoted from theSérie B.
Botafogo became the first club to be promoted after a 1–0 win againstLuverdense on 10 November 2015 meant they were guaranteed an automatic place.[5][6] They returned to the League after only a season's absence.[7] Vitória became the second club to be promoted, after a 3-0 win with Luverdense. They returned to the League after only a season's absence.Santa Cruz became the third club to be promoted, after 3-0 win withMogi Mirim. They played theBrasileirão for the first time since the2006 season.América Mineiro became the fourth and final club to be promoted, following a 1–1 draw over Ceará meant they finished above them on points difference and secured the automatic spot.[8]
The four promoted clubs replacedAvaí,Vasco da Gama,Goiás andJoinville. At the end of the season, for the third consecutive year,Rio de Janeiro did not have its four representatives in the first division, largely due to the inconsistent performance of Vasco da Gama and Botafogo, who alternated in relegation in recent seasons.
