Football league season
The 2024 Campeonato
Brasileiro Série B (officially the Brasileirão SportingBet - Série B 2024 🍊 for
sponsorship reasons)[1] was a football competition held in Brazil, equivalent to the
second division. The competition began on 8 🍊 April and ended on 6 November.[2]
Twenty
teams competed in the tournament, twelve returning from the 2024 season, four promoted
from 🍊 the 2024 Campeonato Brasileiro Série C (Criciúma, Ituano, Novorizontino and
Tombense),[3] and four relegated from the 2024 Campeonato Brasileiro Série 🍊 A (Bahia,
Chapecoense, Grêmio and Sport).[4]
The top four teams were promoted to the 2024
Campeonato Brasileiro Série A. Cruzeiro became 🍊 the first club to be promoted on 21
September 2024 after a 3–0 win against Vasco da Gama.[5] Grêmio were 🍊 promoted on 23
October 2024,[6] and Bahia and Vasco da Gama were promoted on 6 November
2024.[7]
Brusque, CSA, Náutico and 🍊 Operário Ferroviário were relegated to the 2024
Campeonato Brasileiro Série C.[8]
The match Sport v Vasco da Gama, played on 16 🍊 October
2024 (1–1, 35th round), ended in the 49th minute of the second half, 8 minutes before
the end of 🍊 injury time. Before the suspension of the match, Raniel (Vasco da Gama)
scored a penalty goal and during his celebration, 🍊 close to the Sport fans, objects were
thrown onto the field of play towards the players. After this, an invasion 🍊 of many fans
began and the match was suspended. The referee Raphael Claus waited 50 minutes before
decide to end 🍊 of the match.[9]

Superior Tribunal de Justiça Desportiva (STJD) with a fine 🍊 of R$180,000, eight host

and the sanction was reduced to R$150,000 and 🍊 six host matches behind closed
doors.[11]
