Brasileirão 2023 - Brazilian Championship Serie A

[joker_josue]

Much of this "problem" is due to the fact that the advertising that these sponsors do in Brazilian football ends up being restricted to Brazil only, something very different from what happens with the European championships in which "the whole world" watches.

Maybe that could change a bit in the next sequence of contracts. In recent years, the Brasileirão has had greater visibility internationally. It's true that it still doesn't have the same level as the European championships, but that will be very difficult to reach. Perhaps Palmeiras and Flamengo will get bigger sponsorships soon, as they have had more international impact.

They need to standout both in the Brasileirao and the international arena in Copa Libertadores so they make headlines,they should go the extra mile and their players should score really entertaining goals and the games between teams in this Brazilian Serie A should start to become stronger and most importantly that the home team which usually wins even against stronger teams that happen often here should start to disappear.Only when such achievements will be reached only then the impact in international arena for this league will be start to be seen.

The main Brazilian championship has been broadcast internationally for a long time.
Since 2019, if I'm not mistaken, it has already been broadcast, for example, to the United States with voiceovers in English and Spanish, in addition to Portuguese. There is even transmission to China with voiceover in Mandarin.

I think what is really missing is the interest of other fans in following the Brazilian championship. People are naturally more interested in European football and I think that is unlikely to change.

Brazilian teams need to stand out more in international championships, play against teams known worldwide and win them, to gradually gain notoriety and gain respect from fans in the rest of the world.

In Portugal, there has been more talk about the Brazilian championship, because now there are many Portuguese coaches who are doing a good job.
Even so, it's not one of the most followed championships, that's true.

This is quite a bold assertion. While it's true that the Brazilian championship has garnered some international recognition, I would venture to say that this recognition has yet to yield fruit in terms of global interest, making your proclamation both bold and puzzling. Let's pause for some serious thought, shall we? Is our national football team competitive with the finest in Europe? Or do we prefer to remain the stereotypical big fish in a small pond? It's time we asked ourselves honestly, how are we going about spreading our particular brand of football to the masses? Could it be that we are asking too much of the gods?

In part I think that the Brasileirao is quite relevant, it has become famous, in the news they always dedicate a part of their news to talking about the Brasileirao because it is very attractive fútbol, just like the Argentine soccer tournament.

In the Copa Libertadores de América, the Brazilian teams are the ones that stand out the most, they have a great level in fútbol and tend to win most of the time, it is very fought with the Argentines, the good thing about all this is that the more display they have, more international companies will see them.

The state championships are reaching the final stretch and soon after the Brasileirão 2023 begins, are you ready for the bets? It starts on the 15th of April... only one month to go.

This year the championship gained reinforcement in quality teams as Cruzeiro, Vasco, Bahia and Grêmio entered the "Serie A" of the championship, which will probably make it more exciting and much more competitive.

Sports sites are already talking about favorites, and the most acclaimed I've been reading are Flamengo and Palmeiras teams, do you agree with this prediction?
I think it's too early to talk about favorites. As much as I'm rooting for my favorite team.... Internacional , I prefer to wait for the opening rounds of the championship to form an opinion.

How are the state championships going?
I know they are very different, and the big teams don't usually perform well. But maybe you can already get an idea of how the teams are prepared.

At the beginning of the state championships I had one opinion, and now it has changed almost completely.
I watched a lot of games in the São Paulo state championship, the Rio de Janeiro state championship, and some of Gremio's games.

Corinthians disappointed me, they played well at the beginning of the championship, but in the end they couldn't beat Ituano. In my opinion, this team is not capable of fighting for the Brazilian Championship title, nor to have a good campaign in the Libertadores. We urgently need three new and good players, and Andrey Santos who went to Vasco would be a great option.
The team is very old with Fagner, Fabio Santos, Renato Augusto, Paulinho, Gil and Cassio. Unfortunately it is time to look to the future and build a younger team.

About the other teams I will speak less, but Flamengo, São Paulo and Santos that are always favorites, disappointed me too, the 3 teams are in crisis and are no longer favorites for the title this year.
Negative highlight for Flamengo that lost 4 decisions this year and is not playing well since they changed coach.

Now Palmeiras is strong, and is the absolute favorite in my opinion.

Grâmio pleased me a lot, it has everything to be a good season and reach the top 5.

[joker_josue]

Now Palmeiras is strong, and is the absolute favorite in my opinion.

I've been analyzing Palmeiras' history and I've noticed that they've only managed to win two championships in a row on two occasions. (1972, 1973, 1993, 1994)

Do you think Palmeiras has what it takes to win two championships in a row?

This year there will be more Portuguese coaches in the Brazilian teams, who already know Abel Ferreira well. I think this year will be more difficult. Unless really the opponents are really bad.

Sports sites are already talking about favorites, and the most acclaimed I've been reading are Flamengo and Palmeiras teams, do you agree with this prediction?

Yes, I agree with this prediction. Palmeiras made an excellent campaign last year and they have all the tools to repeat the performance this year. 1 year is a too short period of time for another teams to improve in a level to become real threats to the currently champion. Flamengo's advantage is to be a powerful club, with the largest crowd among all, influent, wealthy and popular. They are always a decent competitor.

This year the championship gained reinforcement in quality teams as Cruzeiro, Vasco, Bahia and Grêmio entered the "Serie A" of the championship, which will probably make it more exciting and much more competitive.

Well, about Cruzeiro, especifically, the situation is pretty bad yet. Although upgrades were made since last year, the crowd is still mad on the team, due to the poor gameplay against weak teams such as América-MG, last saturday.
I'm not confident Cruzeiro is going to make the championship more exciting and competitive. It seems there is still a long path ahead until they can become a solid club again. The question is if Ronaldo can make it work.

Yes, sure, Palmeiras is the favorite to win again in my opinion, even if it's hard to win twice in a row.

Of course it is hard to predict which team will be champion before the championship even starts, but from all the matches I've seen so far of the Brazilian teams, Palmeiras is the favorite.
The team managed to keep almost the same players, and even got some reinforcements.

During the championship there may be some teams that also play very well and that nobody was expecting.

But of the big teams that are always favorites, Palmeiras is the only one that is playing VERY well, with an old coach, a team mixed between the experienced and the young, and so on...

In the bookmakers and among the bettors, Flamengo should be the favorite at the odds, but I didn't like the soccer presented by Flamengo at all.
Flamengo this year already lost the Club World Cup, Recopa Sul-Americana, Supercopa do Brasil and in the carioca championship is in 3rd place.
If Flamengo loses a few more games I think coach Vitor Pereira will be fired.

As I've said before, I wouldn't want to talk about favoritism early, but I confess that I also believe that Palmeiras has a great chance of winning twice in a row for the campaign they've been doing in 2023.

The year has barely started and Palmeiras has already come "motivated" to win titles, the Super Cup they already won by beating Flamengo in the decisive final.
In the State Championship (Paulistão), Palmeiras also had a great campaign, eliminating the three main rivals early on.
Will the Brasileirão be as easy as that too?

I've been checking this Wikipedia page to find out who has won this championship consecutively and I found out that this is much more common than I imagined.... here's a summary of the data:

• 8 teams have managed to win consecutively: Santos, Palmeiras, Internacional, Flamengo, Corinthians, São Paulo and Cruzeiro;
• The leader of this ranking is Santos, who has managed to lift the cup for 5 consecutive years;
• The last team to achieve this feat was Cruzeiro in the years 2019 and 2020;
• Palmeiras won consecutively for the last time in 1993 and 1994.

Has Palmeiras's turn come again?

[alegotardo]

For Flamengo supporters who believe in a good performance by their team in this championship, they will have one more reason to believe that they will be able to lift this cup....

Striker Bruno Henrique is returning to the games after almost 1 year sidelined due to a serious injury to his right knee.
The medical department has already "released" the player and the prediction is that he will participate in the debut game that will be against Coritiba on April 16, at Maracanã.

Would anyone here bet that he will score a goal in this match?

[joker_josue]

Would anyone here bet that he will score a goal in this match?

Will he be in the starting lineup?
With just 15 days of training will it be enough for him to get in the ideal shape to start playing? He may even play, but he won't be the starter and that reduces the possibility of scoring.

Usually a player who has a serious injury takes a few weeks to have the ideal confidence level to play good games.

A striker of his caliber would have no problems scoring goals and I bet he will score a goal.For me the fact that he has been missing for such a long time is another confidence booster that he wants to score as many goals as he can.Of course he is going to play very cautious in the beginning as he would not like to get injured again but once he gets up to speed and his confidence boosts then it is the time that he will most probably score a goal.Even if he does not score the importance of such a great striker for the team is also a confidence booster for all of the team members,so only advantages will the team have because of his return.

Good to see a new thread for the brazilian soccer championship
Will stick around to check the news
Do we have a bet for who will be the 1st, 2nd and third place or not yet?

As far as I'm concerned, Palmeiras has everything it takes to do it again, it's not something that should surprise us, for me Palmeiras is the elite team in Brazil, and as you say, Flamengo didn't get very far in The club world cup, in fact, was very disappointing, I had high hopes for this team, and more because of the statements that some players gave, but everything stopped there, that's why for me in football everything is possible, and as I have Said Palmeiras has the material to do it again.

If they play at the Maracana, it will be so that the forward can shine, I don't see any other way, besides, it's not that Coritiba is a bad or easy team, but Flamengo has a great team, they are very strong and they understand each other on the pitch, and Here in the Brasilerirao, the team that understands each other the best is the one that goes the furthest, this is undoubtedly one of the things that can make a difference, maybe there will be that reputation of Flamengo, Palmeiras and the truth is that I have a lot of faith in Santos .

I haven't placed the bet yet, and I don't think it's available at the bookmakers yet either, but the first place I think will be Palmeiras.
Although I am a Corinthians fan, it's hard to admit that Palmeiras team is superior to the others at the moment.
They have just signed Richard Ríos, who was playing for Guarani, and they have almost completed the signing of Artur, who was playing for Red Bull Bragantino. Two very good players.
And the fact of hiring only 2 or 3 players shows that the team is already very good and playing well. Not to mention that now there are players from Palmeiras in the Brazilian team and they must work even harder.

Wow, 10 months without playing made a lot of difference for Flamengo's team, which visibly got worse.
Maybe the return of the player will improve the team and help them to be more decisive, because Flamengo's team is not doing well at all, even though they are in the final of the carioca championship.
I won't bet on a goal yet, but I know that it will improve the team.
And we also have to see if he can handle coming back and playing all the time or just half.

Palmeiras is undoubtedly the favorite club to win the competition and we have a lot of difficult finding someone who goes against this prediction everywhere we go. Even supporters of rival teams agree Palmeiras is going to win another edition of the tournament this year.
The 2nd and third places are still a mistery, though. Flamengo is quite popular and always a favorite team to finish on the top positions, but the competition must be tough for a selection of clubs considered to have a similar performance level.
