A Glimpse at the Brasileirão 2024: League Recap

First thing to remember in our analysis is that we evaluate all the players who played in the Brasileirão 2024 (Série A – Brazil). In other words, we evaluate and filter the best performers in the league. Assessing all the positions, coupled with the evaluation of a lot of factors and indicators in their games, we can generate the ratings for the players performances. As a matter of fact, in this type of analysis, the type of formation played doesnt influence or limit the ratings system.

Team Average Rating

Accordingly to our algorithm, Flamengo, Botafogo and Palmeiras were really strong all year long with great performances. While Flamengo was our best team, Internacional also had great dynamics. As shown above, Bahia has played really good football, with a Team Average Rating higher than Atlético Mineiro’s & Corinthians.

Best Players

In terms of the best players in the Brasileirão, Alexandro Bernabei had undoubtedly great performances. Equally, at a really high level, we can spot Alan Patrick: Internacional’s Midfielder has been one of the most consistently great players in the League. A fun fact about this list is the lack of players from Flamengo despite being the best rated team.

Best Young Players

All things considered, Brazil ‘creates’ a lot of Young Great Players. Therefore, it’s no surprise that this list includes great players like Estêvão, Wesley, Kaiki, Cuiabano, Gustavo Nunes & Kauã Elias.
