TABELA — CAMPEONATO PAULISTA

The 2026 Campeonato Paulista brought together sixteen clubs in Brazil's flashiest state league, now in a league phase format. The pots were only used for the draw: in practice every team played eight games in a single general classification, with no separate group, and whoever piled up more points climbed the table. Few matchdays for so much rivalry, so an early slip already set the fans on edge.

The top eight in the general classification advanced to single-leg quarterfinals, and the bottom two were relegated to the 2027 Série A2. The fight up top was brutal: Novorizontino, Palmeiras and RB Bragantino finished the first stage tied on sixteen points, split by goal difference. Down at the bottom, Velo Clube and Ponte Preta swallowed the drop.
