Palmeiras is the Brazilian champion with the lowest number of defeats since 1993 – 11/14/2022

Until losing to Internacional in the last round (3 x 0, on Sunday (13)), Palmeiras finished Brazil 2022 with only three defeats, a record in the tournament’s history in the consecutive points era, since 2003. In these past 20 years, three have won Championship teams with four defeats: São Paulo (2006), Palmeiras (2018) and Flamengo (2019).

In the history of Brazil, the last team to win a championship less than the current team of Abel Ferreira was, curiously, the same Palmeiras, in 1993. In that year, Vanderlei Luxemburgo’s men lost only two matches. However, they only needed 22 matches to lift the trophy.

Apart from the Taça Brasil tournament, which was a short tournament, with Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro already in the semifinals, only one team has won the title undefeated since 1967, from Robertão to here: Internacional, who won the 1979 Brasileirao with 16 victories and Seven draws in 23 matches.
