Globo will adjust its Saturday schedule because of the 18th round of the Brasileirão, which will be paused in the coming weeks due to the 2026 World Cup. The network has set two Serie A matches for different regions, with the broadcast split between Grêmio vs Corinthians and Bahia vs Botafogo.
For viewers asking which game will air on Globo in their state, the answer depends on the local feed. Grêmio vs Corinthians will reach Rio Grande do Sul and most of the national network, while Bahia vs Botafogo will be shown mainly in Rio de Janeiro, Bahia, Espírito Santo, Pernambuco, Paraíba, and Sergipe.
Which match Globo will show by region
Grêmio vs Corinthians will be broadcast in Acre, Alagoas, Amazonas, Amapá, Ceará, Goiás, Maranhão, Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, Paraná, Santa Catarina, and the Federal District. Minas Gerais will also receive this match, except for the Juiz de Fora region, which will see a different game.
Bahia vs Botafogo will be concentrated mostly in Rio de Janeiro, Bahia, Espírito Santo, Pernambuco, Paraíba, and Sergipe. Juiz de Fora in Minas Gerais and Santarém in Pará are also included in this broadcast.
What is at stake in the two televised games
Bahia enters the match under pressure after a poor run in the league. The club has not won in eight games, its longest drought since 2023, and sits on 23 points after falling to eighth place, its worst position in this Série A campaign.
Botafogo comes from a win over Caracas that secured the best overall record in the group stage of the Copa Sudamericana. In the Brasileirão, the team started the round in 10th place with 22 points after drawing with São Paulo in its latest league match.
In the other Globo game, Grêmio and Corinthians are trying to finish the first half of the season further away from the lower zone. Grêmio is 14th with 21 points, three above the relegation zone, while Corinthians is right behind in 15th place, also on 21 points.
