Four results from round 33

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) schedule consulted on October 13, 2026 records Fortaleza 2–2 CRB at 16:00 on October 12. That Monday, Novorizontino beat Ponte Preta 5–1 at 19:00, Criciúma beat América-MG 1–0 at 19:30, and Botafogo-SP beat Ceará 1–0 at 21:00. All four games belonged to round 33.

The match identifiers are 325, 322, 327 and 321, respectively. Searches about Fortaleza and CRB prompted this roundup; the other three fixtures also appeared among the captured trend groups. The CBF schedule still listed Athletic and Londrina for October 13 at 19:30 with no score entered. That fixture is not counted here as a confirmed result.

What the standings snapshot says

The table shown in the same consultation listed Vila Nova on 61 points, Novorizontino and Juventude on 60 each, Fortaleza on 57 and Criciúma on 56. For these five clubs, the games-played column showed 33. These figures describe the record consulted at that time; they do not establish promotion, elimination or a final season position.

The gaps were one point from Vila Nova to the two clubs below it, and one point between Fortaleza and Criciúma. Those are arithmetic comparisons, not qualification probabilities. Promotion also depends on the competition rules; ConverteArq explains the 2026 playoff format in a separate guide.

How to avoid mixing up clubs and records

“Botafogo” can refer to teams in different competitions. Here it means Botafogo-SP, whose home venue is Santa Cruz in Ribeirão Preto. Check the competition, city and match number along with the name. The same care helps distinguish Novorizontino’s full name in the CBF table.

To check this roundup, open the 2026 Série B page, select round 33 and look for the four match numbers above. Then consult the standings and note the date of that snapshot. A round can include matches on different days and a fixture without a score; an empty field should remain missing information, not be treated as a result.

ConverteArq commentary

This snapshot shows why a club’s situation should not be attributed to one match alone. Novorizontino won by four goals; Criciúma and Botafogo-SP won by one; Fortaleza and CRB shared a draw. The results differ, while the point gaps at the top of the consulted table were narrow. That is enough to describe the record without inventing odds.

We kept the unfinished fixture out of the score roundup even though it appeared beside completed games. A consultation date does not turn a future kickoff into a result. Grouping the four related searches also avoids repeating the same table explanation on several pages. Readers get the verified snapshot, match identifiers and a path to check later updates.
