About the Brasileirão

History

Brazil's first attempt at a national championship dates back to 1959, in an experimental format, before a genuinely continuous national competition took hold from 1971 under the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). The championship went through several formats over the decades — group stages, knockout phases, combined regional tournaments — before settling, from 2003 onward, into its current single round-robin format played home and away, modeled on the European system. The Brasileirão Série A has since established itself as one of the most followed and competitive leagues in the world, fueled by the depth of Brazilian footballing talent and the passionate support surrounding the major clubs of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and Belo Horizonte.
